There Is That And Then There Is This

TW: There is this...

From Paul Krugman at NYT:
"Last week Mike Pence, the third-ranking Republican in the House, was asked what compromise he would agree to on health care. His answer, word for word, was

'Well, look, you know, I was, uh, yeah, yeah, look, uh.'

Today Tim Pawlenty has an article in Politico, which is a bit more articulate than that — but as Bruce Bartlett says,

'he rants about the deficit without proposing any spending cuts and insisting on still more tax cuts.'

Well, look, you know, he was, uh, yeah.

The moral here is that right now the GOP literally has no ideas about how the nation should actually be governed.

And the scary thing is that lack of ideas seems to be a winning platform."

TW: and then there is this...I really wish the country would give the guy a chance to govern instead of listening to the pantheons of incoherent bloviation like Pence/Palin et al.
