You guys rock. I hope you really do have the fun doing the show that you appear to have.
I do however think that David got by far the better of this weeks effort if only because of his dissection of Romney’s new and improved positionings. To ascribe Romney’s ‘conversions’ as most likely ‘election-oriented’ makes a lot more sense than some mystical conversion based on ‘improved’ ultra-sound techniques.
Now I know it’s just me but frankly Romney strikes me as an ‘empty-suit’ or at best a bueaucratic manager type. At a time when LEADERS are required, Romney just does not cut it. Which probably explains his current polling position.
No ‘gravitas’ whatsoever and it shows.
I think Fred T. would win the nomination in a walk should he decide to run. Image is just about EVERYTHING in the modern world, and Fred’s image is rock-solid.
Rudy-Fred or Fred-Rudy. An unbeatable ticket.
Probably in the “old dog, new tricks” category, but perhaps David could work on his habit of making his point, then stammering loudly to prevent a response. Partisan views don’t preclude the ability to provide objective analysis, but David needs a few adjustments to get there.
I have given up on those “pundit” shows. They get a batch of know-it-alls who make inane comments. For me, when a party (GOP or Dems) have their candidates, then I become interested. But then I want the specifics of what a candidate claims to stand for rather than what a pundit has to say about him. Talk shows such as these are the tabloids for those with college degrees. But some pundits are useful as consultants: provides work for retired high-ranking military men.
Mr. Corn….please! Reasonable, decent and honest Americans know that Fox is the ONLY place you’ll find anything even remotely called a conservative voice in the media. Of course the Colmes types permeate there too, but I have the remote for that!!
