LA Times twists RP quote

Rep. Bachmann (R-Minn.) received 21% of the nods from the poll of 600 likely Republican caucus voters, followed by former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who came in second with 18%. Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), who Wednesday said he wasn't "cut out to be in politics," came in a respectable third place with 14%.

They just had to throw that in there...not like MSM spin is any surprise. They make his quote sound so derogatory, like he doesn't think he's a good candidate or questions his campaign, as opposed to his unexpected entry into politics (what he really meant). Maybe I'm just overthinking this.

He wasn't cut out to be in politics since they started having slime alone in politics. And fortunate we, his sense of duty made him do it, anyhow.

I don't think that is going to hurt him.

Welcome to the forums, by the way!

Thank you! Long, long overdue.

And guess who wrote it? Our old "friend" Andrew Malcom, member of Salon.com's Hack 30 list of the nation's worst pundits whose biggest claim to fame is being Laura Bush's press secretary. Yeah, I guess it would be too much to expect one could go from Laura Bush's staff to being a working journalist so made him a blogger instead. Good call because opinions, like arse holes, are usually found everywhere.

I read it in his voice and spat tea all my keyboard.

Thanks a lot.

That's because he's a statesman, not a politician.
