Bachman?

Well, she is likely more experienced as an executive with a more complete resume at this stage in the elections than Barry was at this time in 2007.

Still ain't voting for her if I vote R in the primary.

BINGO. Besides, she probably won't be on the ballot when your primary comes around...

Huh? I'm not going to say Obama had a long legislative record but she hasn't really done anything of note in private or public. Perhaps her most notable moments were being pushed out in the House to make inflammatory statements.

She is likely more experienced at this stage than Obama was in 2007. Comparable time in education, little time in the working real world (versus near 0 for O - community organizer / college professor do not fit the real world), comparable time in the state / fed 'guvmint. Obama hasn't exactly done much of note by that time either.

I'm against enough of her views not to vote for her and she is too extreme for my comfort zone, my point was she has about as much relevant exp (some can argue more, some less) as Obama did at that stage.

Taken one step further, perhaps we should demand more from our political system than the hacks we've been saddled with.

Exactly what the furor should be. As an example, the tea party was able to gain a voice and get their opinion heard. We need to get a similar message out there to all parties - if this is your best, your best wont due (ala Twisted Sister)

we as a country deserve better
