4 candidates are ahead of the rest: Romney, Bachmann, Cain, and Palin....which is AWESOME!!
3 of those don't stand a chance of ever winning an election involving the entire population, namely Bachmann, Palin, and Cain. They all made too many crazy statements that are demonstrably wrong. Check out their "lying" record on Politifact...
What they can't overlook is Cain asking for all future bills to be at most 3 pages long, or Palin coming out with one lie after the other, or Bachmann showing her incredible lack of knowledge when it comes to economics and science.
Vice President Joe Biden, tasked with overseeing the $787 billion stimulus package, has been having a little trouble with his "numbers."
During an interview on CBS' "Early Show" on Wednesday, Biden told viewers to check out a government-run Web site tracking stimulus spending, but admitted he was embarrassed because he couldn't remember the site's "number."
"You know, I'm embarrassed. Do you know the Web site number?" he asked an aide standing out of view. "I should have it in front of me and I don't. I'm actually embarrassed."
Biden, who seemed to indicate that he thought the Internet worked like a giant telephone, sounded an unusually Luddite note inside an administration often heralded for its mastery of the Web.
And Bachmann, incredible lack of knowledge when it comes to economics and science? You have got to be joking! This current crew has the economy in the toilet, and as far as science:
I hope you realize that you are saying that Sarah Palin only looks good or has any chance because of how bad the opposition is. You are really emphasizing that she is not really good it is just that you think Obama is that bad. That is not a huge selling point for anyone. It really is not.
So your defense of Bachman's knowledge does not mention Bachman or what she knows at all. Please see how this is not a good thing.

You haven't proved that Bachmann is bad at economics or science. You merely make slanderous statements, just like a typical lib.
I, on the other hand, showed you where your Keystone Kops are incompetent. Since they are so incompetent, your attacks on their rivals are baseless.
So, your argument against any of these candidates in a bowl of steam. Or a steaming pile.

Um....what did you do to prove that Bachmann is good or bad at either?

Cain has a name recognition problem. They are terrified by Palin, since she outs them daily.

“Social Security, like I told you, is out of money. This year it is borrowing from the general treasury.”
"The president of the United States will be taking a trip over to India that is expected to cost the taxpayers $200 million a day."
Small businesses that have "$250,000 in gross sales for the business. They're the ones that are looking at massive tax increases."
"Secretly, unbeknownst to members of Congress, over $105 billion was hidden in the Obamacare legislation."
"The top 1 percent of income-earners pay about 40 percent of all taxes into the federal government."
''(Gay marriage) is probably the biggest issue that will impact our state and our nation in the last, at least, thirty years. I am not understating that.''
Not all cultures are equal.
''Carbon dioxide is portrayed as harmful. But there isn't even one study that can be produced that shows that carbon dioxide is a harmful gas.''
''Does that mean that someone's 13-year-old daughter could walk into a sex clinic, have a pregnancy test done, be taken away to the local Planned Parenthood abortion clinic, have their abortion, be back and go home on the school bus? That night, mom and dad are never the wiser.''
''[Pelosi] is committed to her global warming fanaticism to the point where she has said she has even said she is trying to save the planet. We all know that someone did that 2,000 years ago.''
''And what a bizarre time we're in, when a judge will say to little children that you can't say the pledge of allegiance, but you must learn that homosexuality is normal and you should try it.''
''If we took away the minimum wage — if conceivably it was gone — we could potentially virtually wipe out unemployment completely because we would be able to offer jobs at whatever level.''
''I'm very concerned about the international moves they're making, particularly … moving the United States off the dollar and onto a global currency, like Russia and China are calling for.''
'Normalization (of gayness) through desensitization. Very effective way to do this with a bunch of second graders, is take a picture of 'The Lion King' for instance, and a teacher might say, 'Do you know that the music for this movie was written by a gay man?' The message is: I'm better at what I do, because I'm gay.''
''There are hundreds and hundreds of scientists, many of them holding Nobel Prizes, who believe in intelligent design.''
''I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970s that the swine flu broke out under another, then under another Democrat president, Jimmy Carter. I'm not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it's an interesting coincidence.''
It is not up to you to back up the things you claim or you are no longer claiming that bachman knows anything about science or economics? Is this a credibility issue or a hero worship issue?

Ironic you should say that, then resort to...

Which is ridiculous, naive, and bigoted to say the least.
"Baby mama" is a colloquial urban phrase that refers to a woman who has given birth to a child, and who is no longer in a relationship with the father (i.e. not currently his girlfriend, or wife). Michelle is Barack's wife, and resorting to an unfitting urban term that dismisses their marital relationship reeks of naivety and bigotry.
Cain does lack name recognition at this point, and unfortunately Obama is a perfect example of how much of a problem "lack of name recognition" means. As for Palin "outing them", it also means nothing unless she can offer viable alternative plans (something she NEVER does).
Palin currently spends all of her time cheerleading meaningless talking points, and tossing out ad hominem attacks against incumbents; sure, it's an effective tactic to rile up a crowd when you're only "preaching to the choir", but in order to realistically convert people, and gain supporters, she'll need to add some actual substance and offer viable alternatives to others' plans of action. Ad hominem attacks, jingoistic fervor, and dodging questions with a wink and a grin are no longer enough to gain the public majority needed.

How about you show me exactly where I made any slanderous statements so I can try to take you seriously. At the moment it looks like you tried to just blame me for what you actually did. Maybe I am way off. Quote me.

So you accuse me of doing exactly what you did when I did not. I simply ask you when and where and you hide.
I know though that you do not care what I think. Apparently you only care if you vote for Sarah Palin. That is a winning strategy. Good luck. Shame you could not just be credible instead of blindly accusatory.

It would be so easy to trade lists with you, but I've got more important things to do. I gotta toss some seed out for the birds, and the ballgame is on.
So go about your very important life's purpose which is to dig up dirt on girls.

First you whine about people not providing any proof when attacking your stars, and when they do, you claim to not having time to look at the proof...because you have to toss out bird seed?
Wow, what a magnificent display of ignorance
No wonder you like Palin/Bachmann so much, they're just as ignorant towards facts
