yellojktThat’s right, I said it, I agree with Pat Robertson. He thinks the Republican candidates are being pushed into taking extreme positions that they will later have to step back from in the general election. He says it is a game for losers.
And Captain Obvious apparently visited Perry’s campaign headquarters because Perry now thinks participating in the debates was a mistake.

Did you see Jon Stewart's take on Pat Robertson's take on the Republicans? Heh.

MsJS- Well played!NoVa- He looks exactly the same to me. His run for president is one of my first political memorise thanks to my evangelical parents. Somehow I ended up a liberal.

I understand his point about the debates but, the fact is, if you can't handle the debates that's a bad sign for both your general campaign against a hostile adversary, and the kind of trouble you'd run into in your presidency. "If only the debates hadn't been hard, I would have aced 'em!"

I don't understand how someone thinks they could be elected without debates, interviews or questions from the press. If you can't answer a straight forward question, even if it's couched in a little partisanship, it doesn't seem like you'd do too well under pressure. It's similar to a job interview………."they tricked me with that technical question" or "why should I give an example of conflict resolution, just trust me I'm good at it".

What baffles me is why he got caught unprepared. It's not like he didn't know about them or didn't have anyone on his team who could connect him with a coach or two.He knew what they were about and chose not to prepare.

"There goes the press again with those gotcha questions about those verbatim quotes about stuff I specifically said. Oh, mainstream media, won't you ever learn?"

ashot: "NoVa- He looks exactly the same to me. His run for president is one of my first political memorise thanks to my evangelical parents. Somehow I ended up a liberal."That might explain it. I grew up a liberal, and my most politically active parent (my mother) has always been very liberal . . . and I turned out to be a conservative. But I remember preparing campaigns in my 6th grade class for 1980. Nobody wanted Reagan, because he wanted to bring back slavery and how could you support that? Jimmy Carter handily won that 6th grade election.

kw, I grew up in an ultra-conservative evangelical family and ended up a flaming liberal. But the contrast that really gives me a laugh is that the elementary school election I remember is Kennedy-Nixon. Actually, probably more similarities there than contrasts despite the generational difference.
