I thought the promise of $2 gasoline was a bit over the top.

I think I'm ok with Perry, and hopefully he'll use his words more carefully ("treason" by the Federal Reserve). We'll see.

Romney isn't going to make a massive screw up like this. Romney is competent. Had a great career at Bain, did well with the Olympics. He doesn't seem to have these gaffes, he's got a good organization. However, his ideology is certainly suspect. And that's a big problem.

I think it's too early for Paul Ryan. And Chris Christie.

“I think I’m ok with Perry”

I become more ok with Perry every time Bachmann opens her mouth lately. I want Cain to catch on but I don’t see it happening. Santorum? I like him fine but he’s just not the guy.

Cain or Perry please Lord. With sugar on top.

I’d be thrilled with Palin but I once left a prom date after she had me waiting in her living room for over an hour. I once left a wife and step-daughter home on a Sunday morning and went to church alone, so I wouldn’t be late.

I don’t wait for wimmen folk, I move on.

Barack Obama made outright Marxist calls for the redistribution of wealth and it didn’t hurt his campaign any. Anyone who brought the matter up was considered “extremist” and accused of taking his words out of context. Besides that Joe the Plumber wasn’t really a plumber and... < /sarc >

I don't. Considering that oil was $90 a barrel in October, 2007 and a gallon of regular was around $2.75 on the East Coast, I think what's over the top is that gas is now around $3.65 a gallon when oil is around $80-85 a barrel. Figure out why that is, and she's met over half of her goal.

However, I'm starting to sour on Bachmann. If she can't get these gaffes under control even when knowing she's under the MSM's microscope, then what will that say about her ability to lead?
