Romney tops Obama

Some would disagree. One was a lawyer for the IRS, that puts the other slightly ahead.

As it relates to Palin and Bachmann, "Mommie issues" has absolutely nothing to do with it.

"Incompetency issues," whether it be from a male or female candidate, has everything to do with it!

Bachmann and Palin are both incompetent! Originally Posted by bigtex

They're both batshit crazy and would put our country at risk.

Again, what ARE you talking about?

Who is EVERYONE, and do you think they are competent to be POTUS because EVERYONE is giving them a ton of attention? What if they got a shitload of attention instead of a ton? Or just a tad? How about a smidgen or a pinch?

Of everyone who's announced his/her intention to seek the Republican nomination, Bachmann might be the scariest of the bunch. Until Winkypoo gets in!

For precisely that reason.

The more attention you give them the more popular you make them. Bad press is good press. No press is bad press.

Fox News gave Obama a lot of attention during the 08 campaign. I think it could have been intentional.

That applies to the entertainment world but I don't think it applies to politics. Otherwise all the bad press Weiner is receiving would somehow be good.

I also got a good chuckle out of Bachmann in the first twenty minutes calling the CBO the "Commercial Budget Office".

You got to admit, it's pretty freakin hilarious!
