From Fox Broadcasting's January 24 coverage of the State of the Union:

Fox News and their hosts live in an altered-state totally devoid of reality where the President is concerned.
Ask where is Bobby today and what you will hear.... Bobby who?
Fox wallace gushes over Gov. Daniels' brief speech, and asks rhetorically (and in the voice of unnamed imagined Republicans) "why isn't he running for President?"
These people are hilarious for how they think anyone and everyone should be President!
So now it's Mitch Daniels, but five minutes ago it was Herman Cain, and before that it was donald trump, and hasn't it been "Joe The Plumber" (I think you have to have an actual name to be President) and Sarah Palin's husband and ted nugent and who knows who else, I'm sure you can think of dozens of fools these Foxes have suggested are presidential...
And so if I'm Mitch Daniels and I hear Fox wallace suggest I could be President too, I'd cringe rather than be flattered, because it means Daniels is just another loser like all these other idiots that Fox thinks are presidential material.
................. "why isn't he running for President?" ...
......... OBAMA IN 2012 ... WINS ... BY A RECORD LANDSLIDE ... HUGE NUMBER OF DEMS SWEEP/TAKE CONTROL OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE .....................
A dangerous game to let Fox do the research, as their sample is composed of "opt-in" folks (their viewers,) rather than a larger sampling of the GOP market.
More succinctly, see IRONY's post below...
Then again, maybe it's not that well-known definition of insanity on the part of the GOP. While those wingnuts who post here have a 0% success rate in trying to win the people who frequent this site over to their delusions, the Republican machine routinely gets half of the American voting electorate.
I actually saw both the State of The Union and Gov. Daniels Reply.
With regard to Pres. Obama, only the churlish would condemn either the manner or content of his address - disagree yes, but condemnation says more about the character of those that condemn than about the speech.
As to Gov. Daniels, I was appalled at the oleaginous mendacity of this man as his Orwellian hypocrisy oozed from my television. Just as with all the other shameless panderers of the Trite Right, his brief flicker of prominence will rapidly fade under the overwhelming pressure of reality.
There was one point where the president got some applause in response to a mention of the troops, and Boehner knew he had to applaud, but you could tell it was tearing him up.
Fixed it.
Yes -- and his name is Elmer . . .
