Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and Minnesota congresswoman Michele Bachmann sit atop the standings in the year’s first Des Moines Register Iowa Poll on the Republican presidential field.
Romney, the national front-runner and a familiar face in Iowa after his 2008 presidential run, attracts support from 23 percent of likely Republican caucus-goers. Bachmann, who will officially kick off her campaign in Iowa on Monday, nearly matches him, with 22 percent.
Komrade Romney, aka Ромни (Russian) needs to get his sorry arse out of the race. I think Perry will blow away all competitors, but if he isn’t in, Bachman will do just fine.
I don’t trust Perry on illegal immigration issues.
Michele Bachmann hasn’t even started there yet and she’s in a virtual tie. I’m beginning to believe she is going to be the next President. Because when someone with her personality and substance (first of all she’ll make easy business of the Democrat Mitt Romney (I know he’s in the Republican Party)) stands next to Barack Obama and debates him he will look like a petty idealist and small-time socialist who should have stayed in Chicago—which is who he truly is.
Was that a bit harsh?
He looked petty, idealists and was a small-time socialist last time too, but the pinheads elected him anyway.
Note to all people believing a president can control natural economic cycles. Stop it. Economies swing. The best thing a president can do about a recession is nothing. No stimuli, no jobs programs, and most importantly, no new laws effecting business.
Create an environment that is conducive to economic growth and then stay out of the way.
The sooner the American people can understand that the better off we’ll be. We threw over $2 trillion dollars at this problem and the problem got worse.
Sorry for the rant, but that is the one and only reason B.O. won. People thought he could do something about the economy. The moron can’t even spell economy with out a teleprompter.
Spunky energy:
She is brilliant!!
