Not sure if anyone caught some of that socialist's program tonight, but he basically said if any Republican has a shot at beating Obama, its Tim Pawlenty. He ruled out Romney, Gingrich, and Huckabee for various other reasons.

No mention of Paul.

I was neutral on Tim Pawlenty. Until I heard him open his mouth at CPAC.
Neocon to the fullest extent. Speech contained nothing of substance but appealing to emotions.

The government mouthpieces on the right are pushing him too:

Shit, they, the neo-cons, were breathlessly awaiting the arrival of Fred Thompson in 2008, thought he would be the guy to light the race on fire.

IIRC there was an occasion where he, Thompson, actually fell asleep at some function of some sort.

He's too plain. In every way possible. At least Ron Paul has crazy going for him. No one wants to vote for a guy who looks like he lives next door.

O'Donnell appears to be a very frustrated man for one reason or another. He seems truly bothered that the world does not revolve around him. He made great sense in the movie "An Unreasonable Man" about Ralph Nader. But he turns into an insane frothing at the mouth hatchet man joke of some pathetic parody on MSNBC. I feel kinda' sorry for him. Deep down I think he really cares.

He's upset because even though he knows there's an economic 'Sword of Damocles' hanging over the country - the ball is now in OUR court as to when we let it drop.

I love the way Ed describes Rand starting at 4:25.

After hearing his CPAC speech, I feel Tim "Might Makes Right!" Pawlenty wouldn't be out of place as a warmongering leader from somewhere like Libya. It was a terrible speech! Plus, it was simply insincere, like Romneycare's speech.
