Cain withdraws
 

Stated today that he is suspending his run for the nomination, cites unfounded accusations of sexual misconduct. Pretty predictable given his recent drop in polls and lack of campaign funding.

Palin will never run due to well founded accusations of intellectual misconduct.




Pretty predictable given her recent flubs in close quarter geography and lack of basic change giving skills.

Riot is going to need a new hobby now.

not surprised at all. people fleeing his campaign as tho they were trying to avoid the plague.

Nah, now we work on the Newt..Get Cain to endorse Newt...:D


Let's see which clown emerges from this 'show'....

Ron Paul's campaign announced Saturday that Paul won't participate in the planned NewsMax debate moderated by Donald Trump, and campaign chairman Jesse Benton pulled no punches in explaining the decision


“The selection of a reality television personality to host a presidential debate that voters nationwide will be watching is beneath the office of the Presidency and flies in the face of that office’s history and dignity. Mr. Trump’s participation as moderator will distract from questions and answers concerning important issues such as the national economy, crushing federal government debt, the role of the federal government, foreign policy, and the like. To be sure, Mr. Trump’s participation will contribute to an unwanted circus-like atmosphere..

Are you kidding? Newt's still in the race :D Not to mention poor Rick ("Don't google me!") Santorum, who still hasn't had his place on top of the pile like everyone else. Mittens is still around. Bachmann.

When Ron Paul is the "sensible one", your party is in deep trouble.

BTW, it should be noted that Cain withdrew from the race, but his fundraising PAC still exists. Please contribute, and buy his books! Thank you!

all well and good...til one considers that campaigners appear on snl and leno....
washington, the adamses, monroe, jackson would roll over in their graves if they knew the current state of wash. politics.

Nearly a perfect description of that bunch!:D

Where all the black loving liberals when Cain was in trouble? They call you racist if you say anything about the worst president in my lifetime but they are in hiding when a real black man is floundering. Typical two faced BS by those phony scumbags.
I'm considered a big time racist because i acually hold minorities responsible for their actions but would have voted for Cain because I believed in his views. Wake up America and quit making excuses for that scumbag Obama just because he's black.

Too busy respecting women.

Don't worry ... whiter than white Newt will go the same way as Cain, and for the same reason (mistreating women) plus his history of massive ethics violations.

Ron Paul may be able to find a little traction, he hasn't been quite so nutty as some of the "front runners" to this point. But of the remaining bunch of GOP candidates, i only see 1 guy who hasn't been in front of the camera's making a bloody fool of himself with his foot in his mouth! That's John Huntsman, i know he's pretty far back in the early polls, but he may make some noise as the race moves into the new year. He could just be taking the approach of letting the others run their mouths and knock each other off, which up to this point they have been doing a great job of doing!

Damn Bush must've stolen another election behind my back!:eek:

Huntsman could win New Hampshire over Romney, certainly.

LOL indeed. Well played, Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman :tro:

Respecting woman? Like Palin and Bachman you phony fuc_.

You losers with your fake names keep revealing yourselves :D You should at least pretend to write differently than you normally do.

huntsman said on friday that he won't be there either. no word from mitt yet.

What the hell are you talking about. My name is Dino and I have never tried to hide my identity. I'm a conservative and the next time you're in Saratoga feel free to call me a loser to my face. I doubt you will.

Threatening little guy, aren't you? :D

If Mitt is smart, he'll ignore this, and let it be the Newt, Bachmann and Santorum loser circus.

Boy do I wish you posted more. I'm a little confused though. What makes Cain a "real black man" and Obama not? Please be as specific as you can.

Thanks.

Figure it out

It may be because Obama's mother was white, or it just may be a matter of Cain fitting into Dino's mold of what a black man should be. I don't know Dino so I'm not gonna accuse him of being racist BUT......in the 60's, down south, we encountered this type of thinking...the white racists were fond of saying there were two types of black folks, one (they referred to as a "negro") knew their place and didn't stir up trouble (like being treated equally), the other (they called the "n" word) was a troublemaker who dared to demand equality and an end to Jim Crow. The bottom line being they were willing to tolerate the black man as long as he kept quiet and accepted their world....in other words, you can be black as long as you live by our rules.

I'm clearly not as smart as you are, so I need help with this one. Come on, let it out.

You weren't alive in 2000-2008?:zz:

I was alive 77-81. :tro: The good ole days of waiting in line for gas, almost 20% interest rates, Iran hostages. etc etc.

I'm proud to say the first Presidential ballot I ever cast was voting this clown out of office. Looking back he played a large part in my choice of party affiliation.

i'd have to say that we've had some damn bad 'leaders' lately. obama has continued many of bush's policies, and bush was pretty bad. then there's carter...ford...

i'd have to think that winning ww 2 is the high point of our recent history, just about everything since has been pretty bad, other than winning the cold war. but at what cost did we win that? we never kept a huge military til after ww2, and look at our deficit and debt since that time.
vietnam; a disgrace and huge mistake. invading iraq. ignoring afganistans history and invading there...now it's dragged on longer than nam.

I remember those gas lines earlier than 77...Long lines at my local gas station and only 2 bucks of gas per person...but my pump operator always gave me 5 gal since i was a regular customer...always wondered what people thought we should do about the hostages...Invade Iran?...bomb them?...was one failed rescue attempt...400 plus days, none of the hostages was killed or died while in captivity...Never thought much of the peanut farmer from Ga but only Bush gets my vote for the worst....on many levels but primary was Iraq...

Carter was not a bad president, certainly Bush would rank below him. Carter has been a wonderful former president, doing many good works. I agree that the hostage situation was unsolvable for Carter.

Main reasons i contend dumya bush was worst prez...
Afgan, ok to take out terrorists camps and route the Taliban, capture and kill bin laden and get out in one year tops...end of story...but no, dumya/darth cheney say Iraq is a threat to us...




and Obama is blamed for not cleaning up dumya's 8 years of mess...:zz:

i don't blame obama for not cleaning up the mess. i blame obama for continuing on with much of what bush started. also, one guy can't make it all, and one guy can't fix it all. i have always, and will always hold congress responsible for the majority of our issues.
it'll take years to fix what has been done. just too big a mess to fix everything at once... foreign policy failures, domestic issues being ignored or kicked down the road. too much emphasis on defense, which sucks up so much of our hard-earned money. pols feathering their own nests at the expense of ours. look how many folks lost their retirement while so many sens and reps made money on the same issues that cost soon to be retirees.
social security figures to become a bigger drain, so our most recent president and our current one both advocate lower ss withholdings. awesome.
the number one issue should be what to do to fix jobs, to encourage creation. that will generate more income to state and federal. than work on the budget, what to attack first.
they also need to work on afganistan-it'll never get better, we need to take what we've gotten and haul ass. karzai wants to talk to the taliban, let him. but we need out first.

And he is still a sharp speaker...have seen him on some late nite shows past few years in interviews and does very well....and bush can't complete a sentence..

well, if you compare him to bush, he does ok. but i wouldn't say he wasn't a bad president.

I agree with 99%....but the hard right wants to blame Obama for everything...and he hasn't even started a war....i know elections are coming up but they have been preaching that sermon from day one...:wf

Oh they're all about doing anything and everything to take this President down, i give you the embarrassment for Kentucky that is Mitch McConnell who said it's their number 1 priority!

yeah, but no one really gives a rats ass about the far right except the far right.
and yeah, he hasn't started a war-but we're still in afganistan. it's his now.
i am also bothered by the govt always being in election mode-from the top down. and when i say govt, i don't mean just the president. i don't mean just the house, or the senate. it's all of them, in permanent election mode. they don't want decisions made, votes taken, news let out, until after the election...or pass something tough that will run just past the next vote...no one wants to take a stand because the two parties don't want to lose seats. we need people with some spine to say to hell with the democratic party, or the republican party, and take a stand and do the dirty work that needs to be done. else the dirty work will never get fixed, and the problems will just snowball.
obama said he was for change-i scoffed then, and for good reason. he can't change it-they even have him toeing the line. he said even if it costs me re-election, i'll do the tough stuff. or not. that's on him-but all the issues are on all of them.

but you know what...if, and that's a big if, a republican gets the presidency, the democrats will have their turn at taking that one down-it'll be their #1 priority.

"as part of his duties, the black man will have to spend four to eight years cleaning up the messes other people left behind."

anyone who writes recently that carter is the worst president of their lifetime must have figured out a way to do it posthumously.

Some would say that's politics. I think we can agree it's pretty dirty lol!:D Which is a shame!
