Pretty sure that when a leftist thinks a person/idea from the right is "good" then that person/idea is actually more left than right.
From a comment I found re: the "rebuttal":
"
Nikki Haley has since admitted (hell, proclaimed) that what she said was an attack on Trump. It was also, rather clearly, an attack on Cruz (who holds very similar positions).
So, the Republican rebuttal to Obama’s SOTU, where Obama opened fire on the two Republican frontrunners by implication, was to trot out a republican governor to make the attack on the republican frontrunners even more explicit. Perhaps the dolt was unaware of the meaning of “rebuttal”? Instead, it was even louder open-borders drivel than Obama had spouted.
Did anything said last night change my mind? Yes. I’ve been a Nikki Haley admirer for a very long time, but last night changed that. It also changed one other thing for me; Trump is now my 2nd pick for the nomination (Cruz is my current #1) which is a lot different to a few weeks ago, when I had several ahead of Trump. It’s seeing the GOPe in action that’s making me think more highly of Trump, precisely because those bastards hate and fear him so much.
Oh, one other thing; I flat out will not vote for a GOPe candidate in November, for any office. I’m now firmly in the “burn it down!” camp on that. (So hell no regarding Bush and Rubio)."
