I think it’s really just a good illustration of how the Republicans don’t want to elect Romney so much as they can’t bear to have Obama as president (no matter what he actually does). The focus is on Obama (getting rid of him)–his name is in the forefront of their rabid thought processes, so it comes out of their mouths even when it isn’t supposed to.
Yup, they (the GOP) want to lose so they don’t have to be responsible for cleaning up the mess they made (and yes, Bush’s mess didn’t end when he F’dOBT Crawford), and can raise enormous amounts of cash just sitting back and throwing dog whistle darts at Obama. It’s a lose-win situation. If they were serious about winning, they’d have moved at least a few inches toward the center and Romney could have been the spearhead of that strategy. Instead, they’re falling all over themselves like the Keystone Kops Klan. They’re throwing the election, plain and simple.
That may very well be how this woman made such an unthinking mistake.
And she may well not be in the habit of actually thinking.
But, she is the governor of one of the fifty states.
Arizona. Number 48 to join the union, if I recall.
Republican Governor of Arizona endorses Mr. Obama.
I am amazed.
Has she come out with any explanation/apology/rebuttal? Or is she still hung over?
Oh, for God’s sake. It’s a simple slip of the tongue, nothing more. Why people would even bother to give it more thought than that is beyond me. <smh>
nevermind…
Sorry, I can’t work it out.
What tune is that set to?
As an Arizonan, I think it’s one of the few intelligent things she’s said since taking office.
