To be honest, I don't know that I'd have dinner with any of the Republican presidential candidates. While they might be decent people, politically they're just not all that exciting.
Think about it. These candidates have stated their position during several debates, fund raised and given speeches around the country. Yet what is the only thing people are talking about this week? Governor Perry's brain freeze.
It even beat out our knowing where in the world Matt Lauer was.
How about a little empathy, people? Granted we've probably never lost it on national television in front of millions of people, but we've all been there. Starting confidently down a train of thought when suddenly ye ol' mental faculties plummet like Wiley Coyote and his Acme anvil.
Personally, I don't think one gaffe bars anyone from the presidency but I'd want to know if this condition is chronic. I'd worry about my president sitting down with the head of North Korea trying to hammer out a nuclear agreement and ending up with a kimchee recipe instead.
