i think that will play really, really well in iowa. you know, you and i were out there in 1988. the meat locker. the coldest place in america in january. but the remember 88, bob dole was from neighboring kansas, the fight was over second, between the sitting president of the united states, george h.w. bush and pat robertson, a televangelist, and robertson crushed bush. and i remember being at robertson s election headquarters that night and saying if pat robertson can do that well in the republican iowa caucuses, anyone can. but the republican party today, john, you know as much as i do about politics, both of you, but you know the republican party is a lot more like pat robertson today than bob dole. yes. she is the favorite to win those caucuses. now, don t mistake me. she is not going to win the nomination. don t be sure. she ll burn out. bachmann has said a lot of things that i think are provably inaccurate, like lexington and concord are in new hampshire,
oh, that s unfair. i would ask you. because romney would be robotic. he would. i m going to say romney. but who would you rather have as president? not just that. i just came from the memorial service for david berger. and one of the points that one of the eulogists made, he didn t believe in trivializing politics. this is not a game. and romney is a smart guy. she has no business being in this. she is out of the clown car. she is taping this right now. john alder, she is loving some big shot ivy leaguer, on newsweek, has just declared her not eligible to run for president. i didn t say that. i said she is going to win the iowa caucus and lose in new hampshire. you called her trivial. here is the thing that is i think most significant about her. what does she do to tim pawlenty who is also from minnesota? does she push him off stage? i think you re right. there s a gresham s law here, the good money drives the money out of circulation.
lot of republicans are sitting around looking at what paul ryan is doing and scared about the political implications of this. but the very fact that as the congresswoman said, this is not going to have the political support to pass. this is not a bill a proposal that is going to get through, both because of the senate, and i think actually in a lot of cases, because republicans in the house this is never going to become law. what paul ryan is doing here is setting out a marker, and he s setting out a very extreme marker hoping that, and planning that, i think, that you are going to end up someplace 50 half the way there. and if you set and the ultimate compromise that has to come out is going to come 50% of the way towards him. and if you set and the ultimate compromise that has to come out is going to come 50% of the way towards him. you re missing a step here. they re going to pass the first budget resolution, congresswoman. every republican will be asked to vote for that
thanks to us. she is now chair of the all politics, as well. i may have created debby what s her name, bachmann michele bachmann, her name is eluding me tonight, i guess i m embarrassed by the fact we created her. the missle came out of the show when she said let s have a mccarthy period again. my first reaction is that s a very good pic. she is very likeable. woman next door. very likeable, very smart and knows every big player and donor in the party. and she wanted a big job in the congressional leadership. this is her big job. national leader of the party. and it s going to get bigger, because she has a lot of money to help raise, especially in florida. in south florida. she s going to have to go to texas and that is the route to greatness in the democratic party, by the way. you know who is a great fundraiser? no, go tell me. nancy pelosi. before that, tip o neill. also, her personal story is compelling one. she has battled against illness and also a su
