Was flying back from Seattle yesterday and missed all this banter.
Folks, you can forget about Hound and not voting for Oblamer. She is one of those so-called "Independents" that is really a Democrat in disguise. Sort of like the seminar callers to conservative talk shows that start off with, "I always agree with everything you say and I voted for George Bush twice, but....." followed by the Democrat talking points. She has consistently bashed every GOP candidate except the one that is also a Democrat in disguise (you know, Oblamer's former ambassador to China). She has never once acknowledged the objectively abysmal performance of Oblamer in his handling of domestic or foreign policy issues. In short, she is hopeless and not one of the Independents that can be converted. Fortunately polling data shows that Independents have abandoned the Messiah in droves but being the fickle group that they are they could return to him in sufficient numbers to reelect him.
As for the current nomination process, all we have to do is look back to 2008 during the Dem process to see a similar food fight. I am still optimistic that what will come out of the process is the best candidate to defeat the current WH occupant. That has to be the goal and any desire for ideological purity will only be cutting off our nose to spite our face. Regardless of what Hound says any one of the candidates would be significantly better than Oblamer.
As for her comments about Newt being a terrible Speaker I guess it all depends on your frame of reference. If you liked the legislative accomplishments like welfare reform, fiscal sanity that gave us surpluses, etc. then you would come to another conclusion. You would say Newt has highly effective as Speaker. He was also highly partisan and much detested by Democrats. And for that he was punished with ethics charges and unlike the dozens of Democrats that have done much worse, he is a Republican and had to go. Yet again another example of his ethics woes would have been a resume enhancer were he a Democrat. Let's face it, when you actually have principals you are going to suffer for lapses. When you lack principals (i.e., you are a Democrat) you can do just about anything and stay in office.
