Do you think she has a shot in the Republican primaries? I'm hoping she doesn't run and ends up backing somebody worth backing. She has a lot of pull with Republican voters who don't think intelligence is an important quality for a president to have. For example, I showed my dad the Couric interview where she couldn't answer a simple question about fiscal policy....
... and he said they try to "spring these questions on her and catch her off guard" or something to that effect. I consider my dad somewhat intelligent. I think that a lot of Republicans are drawn by her personality and "morals" that they forget a president should have a certain degree of intelligence and knowledge about the policies a president deals with. The question in that video obviously wasn't a trick question. She should have been able to answer that shit in her sleep. My point is I think if she doesn't run she could potentially have a positive impact by backing someone who is good like this Mitch Daniels or someone else who wouldn't otherwise have a shot. |

I'm not so sure she could win the Republican primaries, but she could (and is) fragmenting the party. And if she were to win the the nomination, it would essentially hand Obama the victory on a silver platter.

That's the a horrific claim. Never mind the other trillions of dollars being thrown away, let's just blame one party for one microscopic speck in the entire budget as the single reason for the blown out of proportion "federal government shutdown."

Is this a good thing? I really don't know what to think. I'd like to see Mitch run, but the GOP's list of top potential candidates is like a fucking reality show lineup, and I don't see him getting involved.

About Mitch Students For Daniels
“If there were a WMD attack, death would come to straights and gays, pro-life and pro-choice… If the country goes broke, it would ruin the American dream for everyone. We are in this together. Whatever our honest disagreements on other questions, might we set them aside long enough to do some very difficult things without which we will be a different, lesser country?” – Gov. Mitch Daniels |

Honest asking here; do you think Trump would be a better president than Obama? I think he might be our best bet at getting out of the recession/trillions of dollars of debt.
Do we know anything about his policy? Would he pull out of wars? |
