The Constitution. :-)

[cripplecreek]

I couldn’t care less about Ron Paul but if McQueeg can’t break 1 percent in the straw polls he’s toast.

[gidget7]

Just like a kid. Rather than do as a grown up would do, which would of course be to see a thread you have no interest in, and just bypass it. You chose instead to come in and make a juvenile comment. ROFL

Why is it some folks can’t resist the urge to do that?

“The Constitution. :-)”

Thanks, and this is Constitution Day!

I’m on a local dial up, in the PA woods.

Please keep me posted!

[Sun]

Hooray! This is exciting!

[CounterCounterCulture]

Empty podiums for absent presidential candidates. LOL :-)

[RasterMaster]

Empty podiums will get questions....wonder how FRed will answer?

[counterpunch]

Straw polls are about all Hunter supporters have left to cling to, aren’t they?
And yet from what I remember, Hunter came in dead last in the only straw poll anyone has paid any attention to so far.
Straw polls teach us something about the Law of Small Numbers, don’t you think?
On the other hand, the latest Rasmussen has McCain in 3rd ahead of “straw poll favorite” Romney.

FRed Thompson....

[Sun]

Maybe he’ll go on Leno’s again tonight. :)

Or maybe all of the GOP so-called 1st tier candidates are at a special meeting with the Dems who also refused to do this debate.

[cripplecreek]

I would have put windsocks on the empty podiums.

[pctech]

I’m very disappointed Fred Thompson won’t be there. He may have lost my vote. I’m looking to hear what Duncan Hunter has to say on the issues.

[Kimberly GG]

“They will talk about life, marriage, and borders”

Explains why NONE of the top tier candidates aren’t present!

[dschapin]

I love the fact that they left four empty podiums up there for the candidates who didn’t bother to come and talk to social conservatives.
