My take away from the debate: perhaps the ideal presidency

RESIZE: AAA

Perhaps we need an administration in which Newt develops the ideas and works the mechanics but Cain keeps the administration grounded and sells the vision to the masses. It’s too bad they’re both from Georgia.

    The ideas are out there. Some folks in congress have already drafted plans to fix some things. Many candidates have plans that could work or be adjusted for best results. there are 15 freedom-loving, pro-growth, job-creating bills that have passed the House this year that have gone no-where in the Senate.
    Plans. Thats not the big worry. Who will provide the leadership to get it done.
    Who is capable of selling these ideas to the American people and ready to stand and fight the demogoguery with the truth? Who will hold the line on raising tax rates and provide us with meaningful debt reduction? Who will be ready to VETO any legislation that compromises conservative principles so we can get the country moving in the RIGHT direction again?
    In the final analysis, its all about who can you trust with all the above.

    Professor Gingrich talks over the average hard-working American’s head. For example, we might agree that the CBO should go, but how many people know what the CBO is?

    I am worried about Romney and Perry on substance. They seem to be too accepting of the conventional wisdom. Big government, open borders, etc.

    I am concerned that Cain is insufficiently familiar with the mechanics of Washington and that some of his views are not well formed.
