DescriptionSarah Palin may have been making the case for herself with a Facebook post last night arguing that a president must be "a strong chief executive [who] has been entrusted with real authority in the past and has achieved a proven track record of positive measurable accomplishments."

But she also sounds an awful lot like Tim Pawlenty, whose indictment against Michele Bachmann is that three-term member of Congress gives a good speech but hasn't actually accomplished anything.


Wrote Palin: "Leaders are expected to give good speeches, but leadership is so much more than oratory. Real leadership requires deeds even more than words."

A chief executive must have tangible accomplishments and not just the capacity to deliver a barn-burning speech?

That doesn't sound like somebody who will be getting on the Bachmann bandwagon.
