Bennett open to indy run (Utah's very own Charlie Loafers)
Politico ^ | 5/11/10 | Manu Raja

Posted on 05/11/2010 11:14:08 AM PDT by pissant

Sen. Robert Bennett (R-Utah), who lost his bid for re-nomination on Saturday, has not ruled out running as a write-in candidate for the Senate this fall.

"I've made no decisions to make a decision," he said Tuesday when asked about his political future.

Bennett would only say he'd make a decision "later."

Such a decision would put his colleagues - who personally like Bennett but will only endorse a GOP candidate in the primary - in a tough position.

"It's a little like going to your own funeral while you're still alive," the 76-year-old, three term senator said of his colleagues who said they'd support the GOP nominee in Utah.

Rush had something by three lib commentators saying Repubs made a mistake dumping this RINO - they called an excellent Senator.

The Lib media and these politicians think they have a lifetime lock on these seats. Retire you parasite.

I’m sick of the politics. There’s massive corruption at every level of our government. Forget the revolution at the ballot box!

I say we are like Greece. I'm afraid we must implode before we could possibly rebuild - if that possible after the NWO takes all.

This guy was given a pink slip by his party he ought to accept it and move on to his lucrative retirement.

The arrogence of ALL of these pols. Their popularity should be a minus 88.

That is my biggest concern! Obama is already friendly with the global elitists who want to bring Earth under a global government. If that happens under his watch, he will likely call an end to America and crown himself Dictator under a repressive global regime.

If that doesn’t scare Americans to arms... we are truly lost as a culture and as a society.

Guess we will send more out in November and work hard in the meantime choosing those we wish to serve. It is going to be a bloodbath and those in the way are going to get run over. I love that people are engaged in the process and firing shots across the bow. I am thinking they are getting the message and none are immune. If we work hard some “Big Dog” Dems could go as well. I see about 75 House Seats gone and at least a dozen Senate seats changing hands.

I read the other day that the filing deadline was over? (didn’t read this article...afraid of nausea)

These people are will to sink our Nation...they are the enemy. They’ve allowed, by their votes, the current situation in this country. They are all culpable and should be considered traitors.

If you think the weeping, moaning and contempt for CONSERVATIVES Bennett exhibits is something, just imagine how McCain would act if HE were bumped off in the primary! These RINO bums really show their true colors (I’ll become a write-in candidate and hope to elect the DEMOCRAT in order TO GET EVEN) when they don’t get their way.

They’re like vampires! They’re not dead until you’ve staked them to the ground right through their empty little hearts.

This is hilarious. I’d be willing to put money down he won’t get 1500 votes.
