Bill O’Reilly On 2012: Rep. Bachmann Is A Running Mate; Herman Cain Has ‘No Shot’

video
» 101 comments

Bill O’Reilly has long considered Rep. Michele Bachmann a respectable member of Congress, but with her announcement that she is officially jumping into the 2012 Republican primary, he has vocally proclaimed that she is not cut out for the top spot. Tonight he continued to explain how he saw her as a vice president and not President and how she fared against the rest of the field with Dick Morris.

O’Reilly began his 2012 election segment by noting that he considered Rep. Bachmann impressive, but didn’t see her as presidential material. Morris vehemently disagreed with both O’Reilly’s claim that she could not win and his claim that she was a smart choice to complete the ticket. Of the latter point, Morris insisted once again that Sen. Marco Rubio must be the running mate because “it’s obvious you need to take the Latino vote away from Obama” (he did not elaborate how Sen. Rubio’s Cuban-American Republican background would convince Mexican- and South American Democrats, whose primary voting issue is immigration, to vote against Obama). Of the former, Morris explained that Rep. Bachmann was likely to win Iowa and South Carolina, leaving Mitt Romney New Hampshire. O’Reilly agreed on Iowa but not South Carolina, where he called Sen. Jim DeMint the “kingmaker.”

Morris also gave Romney the best chance, but argued that Herman Cain was “the best credentialed candidate of any of them is Cain.” After several Cain references, O’Reilly jokingly asked Morris whether Cain had hired him, as he argued that “he doesn’t know geopolitics and is inexperienced.” Ultimately the two agreed that Rep. Bachmann and Romney were the frontrunners, and likely to end up finishing at the top of the pack.

    It’s all about Florida, Frances. All the Republican candidate has to do is deny Obama Florida and Ohio, and he’s a one term loser. He can already forget about Ohio. Get Florida’s Cuban voter base to vote for the Republican candidate and Obama is toast.

    Obama has a secret weapon in Ohio. His name is Kasich. In Fla., if you play to the pre-Castro Cubans, you p-o the Puerto Ricans and Dominicans.
    Don’t know if you are aware of it, but the Cubans are maybe the most hated among the Latino community.

    Palin/West – That’s my ticket until Palin says she’s out. :) Otherwise, I don’t vote for someone (unless Ryan or Perry decides to get in) and it’s just an anti-Obama vote. I’d rather have a Pro-Someone vote though.

    Logically, the only vote I see absolutely winning is a Romney-Palin. It’ll never happen, but it would quiet everyone. But I don’t see Palin as a VP since she was mishandled before. That and she’s a leader not a follower. However, if that ever happened, it would be epic.

    Sorry to say but Cain is soooo bad. I like him in theory. But he’s not ready for prime-time yet.

    From the 2008 Florida exit poll data:

    Obama won 57 percent of the Hispanic vote, surpassing President Bush’s 55 percent in 2004, and Sen. McCain got 42 percent.
    Exit polls showed that 84 percent of Miami-Dade Cuban-Americans over 65 voted for Sen. McCain, and 55 percent of those 29 or younger voted for President-elect Obama.

    The Cuban youth vote went for Obama.

I’m not sure why BillO is having such hissy fits and trying to be a king maker of sorts – he just doesn’t have that kind of clout with the public.

    I do love how Obama is “our President,” but Bush was “your President… because I didn’t vote for him.”

    Not saying that’s you, Greg… but it was plenty of your political allies.

    Anyway, with the economy continuing its downward trend, I wouldn’t put too much stock into Reagan or Clinton’s comparative numbers. There are other factors at work (against) Obama.

    The nomination depends on whether we want the US to become a third world country or regain its stature and the manufacturing giant of the world. If the latter is the case, Ron Paul and Herman Cain is THE ticket. But, be assured, “We the People” will get whomever the big money wants us to have. If that were NOT true, McCain would never have been nominated. Had *all* candidates been given an equal opportunity to present their cases in the ’08 debates, McCain would have come in last.

    Get a life. The various Latin communities have strong nationalist ties. They aren’t all alike because they speak the same language. And, just as Westerners look down on “city slickers” and Easterners laugh about “hayseeds” and “rednecks”, there are divides. Try calling a Puerto Rican a “hivero” and see what happens.

    of course, to become the “manufacturing giant of the world,” cain and paul would have to:

    a) completely gut all environmental protections

    b) completely destroy unions and the minimum wage

    c) cut corporate tax rates, and taxes on the wealthy, even further

    d) poison every waterway; chop down every forest; and kill every last endangered species

    e) repeal discrimination-based legislation

    which, mind you, isn’t too far from what cain is proposing we do right now.

  • darladoon

    and btw, we already are a “manufacturing giant,” it’s just that workers aren’t sharing
    in the profits like they were 40-50 years ago.

    now, workers’ wages are stagnant, healthcare/housing are more expensive,
    and prices are going up and up.

    of course, republicans like cain LOVE this, because that means……more for them and
    less for the american worker, who produce all the wealth anyways.

    No one said what? The post I was responding to clearly said, “our President,” which reminded me of all the debates I had just a few years ago with the “your President” type people. So I mentioned it, and moved on.

    What’s your problem, Glacks? Not enough to get angry about, so you have to manufacture something? Yeesh.

    Let’s start here. I think BOR is out of line saying Bachmann is “VP” material only, and that Cain has “no shot”.
    Dismissing MB to the #2 spot smells of sexism. Every candidate is in it to win it, and should be judged on that basis.
    Cain wowed the 1st debate, was weaker in this one (I thought). But he has several pluses, and time.
    BOR is a known pompous @ss, and this thread shows more about him than the candidates, IMHO.

    I speak for myself. You’re delusional. You think that I have multiple personalities. You might want to pull a Weiner and do some retrospection. Unlike you, as has been mentioned before, I’m on the ONE name that I’ve ever created and “managed”. Now please leave me alone as you are crazy, talking about multiple personalities and so on. Such libel.

    Forty of you neanderthals have thumbed down the results of three elections. You would ignore the truth until it bit your @ss. Whoever was FU, it weren’t me. babe.
    BTW: How many personae can you round up at 2:30 AM to use “George C.”‘s trade-marked word? How much do you get paid for it?

    On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
    Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
    Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
    My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
    I had to stop for the night

    There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell
    Then I was thinking to myself this could be Heaven or this could be Hell
    Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
    There were voices down the corridor I thought I heard them say

    “Welcome to the Hotel Mediaite
    Such a lovely place
    Such a lovely face
    Plenty of room at the Hotel Mediaite
    Any time of year
    You can find it here”

    Her mind is Tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes Benz
    She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends
    How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
    Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

    So I called up the captain, “Please bring me my wine”
    He said, “We haven’t had that spirit here since 1969″
    And still those voices are calling from far away
    Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say

    “Welcome to the Hotel Mediate
    Such a lovely place
    (Such a lovely place)
    Such a lovely face
    They’re living it up at the Hotel Mediaite
    What a nice surprise
    (What a nice surprise)
    Bring your alibis”

    Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice
    And she said, “We are all just prisoners here of our own device”
    And in the master’s chambers they gathered for the feast
    They stab it with their steely knives but they just can’t kill the beast

    Last thing I remember I was running for the door
    I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
    “Relax,” said the night man, “We are programmed to receive
    You can check out any time you like but you can never leave”

    NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I think Dick Morris still thinks the world is flat. Has he been right about anything? But I guess thats why he’s on FOX.

    that’s odd – ours went down (in two different markets – they both dropped)

    Fact: O’Reilly is not on a spot that most Americans are in about their futures so I say Bachmann has a much better understanding of what’s going on here in real America than he does but hey if he’s right then okay she would make a good VP as well as top spot as President but time will tell as the GOP race goes on and the field gets more clear.

    Dismissing MB to the #2 spot smells of sexism. Every candidate is in it to win it, and should be judged on that basis.

    Are you serious? Because O’Reilly thinks that Bachmann is better suited for the VP role, you think it’s sexism? You’ve got to be joking.

    Is it sexism every time a commentator says “he’d make a great VP,” or does it only become sexism when it’s a woman? I guess people saying that John Edwards was vying for the VP slot with Clinton or Obama in the lead, was unfair and sexist?

    Come on… that’s just silly.

    Does anybody on the right really buy into anything Dick Morris says?

    He says 10 interesting things a day. Half of them are obvious but he gives them a bit of perspective. The others are pure guesses. So, the question is, which of his guesses will come true?

    Morris is not any smarter than you or me. I think he just spends a lot of time in Washington’s many bars and saloons, so he hears things to which we do not have access.

    This is the guy who said all of 2007 and 2008 that our next president would be Hillary Clinton. Morris is never right about anything.

    In June of 2007, the four leading candidates were Romney, Huckabee, Giuliani, and Fred Thompson. The pollsters had quit including questions about McCain.

    So Morris is not the only one who has ever been wrong.

    THE REAL ROYAL KING said:
    Romney and someone from the Mountain West in which the Republicans have been faltering so badly. Likely a nobody since Romney is so delicate.

    No, because a Republican should be able to win all those states, including Colorado and Nevada and including New Mexico if it can limit voting to only eligible voters.

    The story is Bachmann and the question is, How well will she play outside the Midwest? Can she win votes in New England, in Pennsylvania and Ohio and Michigan? Can she carry Virginia, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina? Who ought to be her running-mate, if she is to win New Jersey or maybe Oregon?

    Let’s start here. I think BOR is out of line saying Bachmann is “VP” material only, and that Cain has “no shot”.
    Dismissing MB to the #2 spot smells of sexism. Every candidate is in it to win it, and should be judged on that basis.
    Cain wowed the 1st debate, was weaker in this one (I thought). But he has several pluses, and time.
    BOR is a known pompous @ss, and this thread shows more about him than the candidates, IMHO.

    Glackin, what is the matter with you? Why are you posting something with which I can agree 100%? Bachmann, Cain this debate versus the first, and O’Reilly of course. Thumbs up for you, Glackin!

  • J Baustian

    WCinWI said:
    All I’ll say is that the Palin camp sees what the Romney camp is doing with the Bachmann camp and the Palin camp would be willing to throw the election against the RINOS to teach them a lesson. I have no faith in a Romney or a Bachmann. I don’t know how you excite the base. Bachmann doesn’t do it like she used to.

    I usually agree with you, but I think you are fixated on Palin and not seeing the big picture.

    The left-wing media has destroyed her, and there is nothing she can do in the next 12 or 18 months to rehabilitate her reputation. They’ve turned her into a caricature and not a serious person, so it does not matter that she is a real person. So I am pretty sure she will not run, and I really hope she will not run.

    I do not know why you apparently object to Michele Bachmann — what is wrong with her?

    As for Herman Cain… he has a great story to tell, but has not done his homework. I think the other candidates, including Rick Perry, must have noticed that just because the election will be won or lost on economic issues, candidates must know foreign policy and trade policy, domestic policy and environmental policy and even agriculture policy.

    The question arose due to the source and the target.
    Why did BOR single out MB as “VP material”? Why not Paul, or Cain?
    Look, Newt is a dead man walking. All that is missing is the date.
    Romney and Pawlenty have a strong yawn factor to overcome.
    Santorum is too far out and too toxic for any ticket.
    The three who bring enthusiastic crowds to their feet are MB, Cain and Paul.
    But Mr. Arrogance dismisses one of the three from the top of the ticket. Why?

    Romney seems much less robotic this time than last. So he has that going for him.
    Santorum is very much in the mold of Jack Kemp. He is a very good man, but boring. And even if he was still in the Senate, I don’t think he’d have a chance.

  • Kevin

    I would support Cain or Bachmann.  Perry looks good too.  While I like Romney, I don’t think he is relevant anymore since he lost to another losing candidate McCain.  What I like about Bachmann and Cain is that they are highly qualified, yet non-typical white male republicans.  I think they would help break down the negative stereotypes of republicans and help get a new generation of Voters.  Image a Cain/Bachmann ticket.  First women President and first African-American Vice-President.  How are you going to stop that?

  • Bakerkyhome

    Thought we were all adults against name calling. Someone needs to grow up. I’m not a Cain supporter but come on now!!!

    Because you don’t like their talking points? Go, run to CNN you’ll fit right in with the rest of them. Hahahahaaa!!!!
