Ouch! That was painful to watch. I bet Jan Brewer made the mistake of memorizing her opening statement. If so, I think that was a silly thing to do. She knows what she has accomplished, all she had to do is just give a warm hello and tick off her accomplishment.
Whenever, I had to speak publicly, I never memorized my words verbatim. Instead I memorized the flow I wanted to follow and filled in the rest from my own knowledge. It is far more flexible and easier thing to do.
In the end, I don’t think this stumble will matter much. Brewer’s actions are well known and the public already has an opinion of her. Had this been Brewer’s first time meeting the public, she would have been toast.

I am more concerned with actions and her actions are ballsy and in the interest of her state. Her opening statement at a debate would mean squat to me, although for public perception I would have hoped otherwise.
I agree. Look, no matter what a person is a human being and they mess up sometimes. So she rehearsed too much, or perhaps was overwhelmed, tired and couldn't think of what to say.
Actions do speak louder then words.

In the last four months Jan Brewer has been caught lying, three times and counting.
The comments made on June 16, 2010, and June 27, 2010, clearly indicates that the Brewer says that immigrants are beheading people in the United States desert. She first ran away from the question and the press when confronted with the question. She finally when to FOX/ FAKE News to recant her lie.
When Brewer was confronted with the fact the two of her top Advisors (Paul Senseman, Chuck Coughlin) are lobbyist for “Private Prisons” giant CCA she first ran away from the question and the press.
In an attempt to gain sympathy, she first said her father had died in Germany fighting the Nazi in World War II (which ended 1945) but of course we find out the truth that her father was never in Germany and died in California in 1955. Do you see a trend here?
Brewer signed into law SB 1070 Bill (Did she even read it?), lied about the crime rates in AZ (even Janet Napolitano knows that all crimes rates went down), and now we find out that she is in the pockets of PRIVATE PRISONS who stand to benefit with the increase Federal jailing, and thus they will pay her back, I wonder if it has to do anything about the fact that her son was transferred to a brand new prison, he was convicted for rape and sexual assault, I guess the fruit does not fall far the tree.

Feh, Obama is just as bad without his teleprompter. Brewer is still right, regardless.
but you gotta admit, share bares a stricking resemblence to the smoker/ social worker from beatlejuice..
You know, the one that talks all raspy, puffin on a smoke, talking through her tracheotomy tube...
she is still right and obama is wrong..nothing can change that..
