Of course, bay... I believe Huntsmann and RPaul are the best choices.I put romney, newt, santorum, in the next group. won't fix things, but acceptable.in the incompetent group, i place perry and cain... and maybe bachman, not sure.
he was a lobbyist, there is no denying that. I dont think any getbigger will step up and say 'building bridges to capitol hill' and 'developing an argument to resolate with conservatives' isn't lobbying.People from both parties do it all the time. Marco rubio was a lobbyist, as was herman cain.
Newt is also a pompous douche and the more he talks the more people don't like him just for the person that he is
this might be true. but he is probably the most competent person running, aside from ron paul.
I'd give the "appears to be most competent" award to HuntsmanDon't be fooled by Gingrich's bloviating. He was basically run out of town by his own party (and for good reason)Leaving in disgrace is not usually a sign of competence btw - with more debates than a regular season of baseball why can't they put Buddy Roemer on stage for a few of them. I'd like to see that guy mix it up with the rest of them and I'd be willing to bet we'd see his poll numbers rise immediately
It is crazy to see how the so called "conservative base" who are sick of establishment type republicans are willing to back the most establishment, inside the beltway, globalist politician in the whole republican party for president.
their pool of candidates is shitty.except ron paul - their daddy sean hannity told them that RP is bad.
I think this process is great. They're getting vetted incredibly hard now. By time the winner is picked it will all be out of the way. What will Obama have to hammer them on that we didn't already know? He's fucked.
