Failing the Great - the app's name after Palin.
Pollster Dick Morris is a supporter of Marco Rubio for VP.
However, on the O'Reilly Factor last night, he predicted that Bob McDonnell will be the selection.
Predictably First Read didnt mention yet another McDonnell success: a $180 million budget surplus this year, the third in a row under the Governor... (Maryland's failed liberal Governor O'Malley had no comment)
McDonnell's stock fell when the abortion informed consent law was being debated in Virginia.
But in the words of a RINO California Governor, "I'm back"!
McDonnell 's stock is on the rise, due to his great performances on the stump and in interviews, and the undeniable success of the Virginia economy under his leadership.
McDonnell is very impressive. Although I have touted a Romney/Rubio before Romney even jumped in the race I would be very happy if Romney selected McDonnell.
Vaginal Probe McDonnell impressive. You tea people are easy to impress. Just put an R next to your name and you're impressed.
Keep trying to build VP (vaginal probe) McDonnell up Bob. The wacky tea people are the only one's buy you BS. You tea people Koch republicans need to get out of your bubble, there's a real world out here to enjoy. No hate, no lies, only truth and love.
Two things here that REALLY concern me. First, it is obvious that most here do not want this man elected and he is not very smart so, how did he become "the" man running against Obama? HELP! We need someone we want to vote for. I am so tired of voting for the lesser of two evils.
Second, if he wanted to earn vootes on this trip he should have terminated the employment of this aide right away. I can not name one company that would allow such behavior from an employee. Of course, he should have stayed home and not shown himself to be a BIG SPENDER taking unnecessary trips!
