I am not my house; my house is not me!
A Double Wide with 1800 sq. ft. of space, a couple of sheds, and a veranda is certainly able to house a good number of people.
LOL
Lots of “snow birds” visiting for the winter
Maybe he wants to go back to China under a different admin.
Perry has a job, one of the best jobs there is.
And from that position, he’s been fighting the Feds for years.
Exactly what we need more of in this country.
Ah...you might be right there. Hi and good wishes. I’m not long from bed.
Anyone know the state law? If Mitt get’s Hunstman’s delegates, that gives him a bigger boost than his endorsement, as he came in 3rd.
The right thing to do is for Romney to drop out now.There’s no other way he can avoid ignominious defeat ~ either at the convention or at the hands of the Obots.
It’s clear you’re unaware of Perry’s longstanding dislike of Romney. which goes all the way back to the time when Romney didn’t want the Boy Scouts in the opening ceremony of the Olympics.
LOL. I don't know what that says, but that's funny.
We got a real a$$hole here....

Newt 14%
McCain 12%
Paul 7%
Bachmann 4%
Santorum 4%
Palin 3%
Perry 2%
Cain 1%
Other/none 1%
Huntsman is the one candidate who can beat Obama in the general 52-43%. The rest lose.
HUNTSMAN
HUNTSMAN
HUNTSMAN
Donate to Jon Huntsman 2012.
THIS IS THE MOST EXCITING PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN IN YEARS AND YEARS
VOTE FOR JON HUNTSMAN 2012
Josh Huntsman the cadidate noone will remember by Nov 2012 if not sooner.
Mitt the liberal is worth about a quarter billion dollars.
Huntsman’s father is a Morman billionare. Huntsman himself is worth around 100 million.
All this is is one filthy rich liberal Morman endorsing another rich filthy Morman. Now dont forget this is the same man that said Romney changes his positions so much he could be used as a weather vane.
Figures this news would come out when I was running a simulation.
SC - 27 of 46 Counties Reporting:
Romney, Mitt - 105,599/31.63%
Gingrich, Newt - 88,269/26.44%
Santorum, Rick - 74,476/22.31%
Paul, Ron - 41,626/12.47%
Perry, Rick - 16,263/4.83%
Huntsman, Jon - 7,621/2.28%
Totals: 333,854
Look for a majority of Huntsman voters to go to Paul and Romney. Huntsman had the same loony foreign policy garbage in the debates. There was definitely a correalation of Paul/Huntsman voters in NH.
Santorum will be in the low 20’s regardless of polls showing him at 14-16%. The endorsement from the Evangelicals helps. Even if Santorum is falling, polling data suggests Ron Paul is picking the defectors up and not Newt Gingrich.
Perry needs to go. He can’t catch either Gingrich or Santorum.
There is absolutely nothing to your four points.
Only point #3 is true. The the other three are opposite the truth.
Got a name for the planet you live on in another Solar System from ours?
Do they get tv, radio, and newspapers there?
And what part of the political information one finds on the internet DON’T they get, where you are?
They splinter, with the majority going to Mitt Romney, then some to Rick Santorum, and the remaining few will go to Ron Paul. The finish in South Carolina will be Mitt Romney, first, Rick Santorum, second, Ron Paul, third, Newt Gingrich, fourth and Rick Perry fifth and last. If Gingrich and Perry garner more then 20% of the cast ballots, it will be a unexpected surprise.
Gingrich and Perry have handed the GOP nomination to Mitt Romney on the silver platter of political stupidness. What does one expect from an envious fool that endorsed Dede Scovafava in NY23 and insured that a liberal Democrat would win the seat in an overwhelming GOP district. That would, by the way, be Mr. Newt Gingrich, far from the sharpest knife in the drawer. As for Perry, comment is not needed!!! Am praying for Rick Santorum, but methinks Romney has it in the bag!!! Sad!!!
Was heading there when Hair-aldo made the announcement. Had just read today that Romney’s Bain owns Huntsman family bus iness and realized that they were connected to throw the primary to Willard.
You getting this snow?
“There is something wrong with your thinking processes or your ability to live in a world outside of personal fantasy.”
I don’t hold national polls in high regard. You hold them in high regard when they support your theory that Newt Gingrich is somehow going to win this nomination. You ignore them, consistantly, when they don’t support your belief that Newt is the strongest candidate.
Which is fine.
Whenever you state that ‘Santorum can’t win’, I’m going to reply.
“The Force isn’t going to come help Rick Santorum become president in our universe.”
Well apparently it helped plenty in Iowa...that inconvenient, meaningless caucus.
“I have invested too much, for too long, for too many campaigns”
If you can’t take the heat - get out of the fire. If you’re going to persist in preaching that Santorum cannot defeat Newt, then I am going to continue replying to you.
“If only our faith in so-and-so was strong enough, he’d win!”
Did I make that argument? No. I am simply arguing that the evidence presented so far (polls, etc), demonstrate that Santorum is the stronger candidate than Newt. He is drawing more support among conservatives and therefore should be the choice of conservatives.
This isn’t an unsupported argument. I’m using the best data we have out there on this, the exit poll data from Iowa and NH. Sure, there could be errors, but the ratio is 2:1. I was gobsmacked when I saw those numbers.
“want a different ending to happen.”
And I don’t want a repeat of ‘08 where we nominated McCain, who turned out to be a loser. Most of Newt’s support is coming from the same folks that supported McCain. They are doing exactly the same thing they did with McCain, and what was the result there?
A loss. What’s the point of going the distance with a candidate when he is McCain 2.0? I don’t see the point.
‘Santorum is done.’
Balderdash.
“He can serve ABSOLUTELY NO PURPOSE WHATSOEVER but to give Mitt Romney the nomination.”
He can win South Carolina, defeat Newt and Mitt, and go on to being the republican nominee.
You are afraid of him being another Huckabee, and I’m afraid of Newt being another McCain. Don’t you see this? I don’t want to nominate another loser.
“And I for one will never forgive him for this if he succeeds”
Great. Just be aware that you are assuming that Newt finishes second in this scenario. If Newt finishes third, will you then, finally understand, that it is Newt that is costing us the win?
“He is DEAD to me if his ambition does the severe damage to Conservatism that a Romney nomination brings about.”
Well, so far, Newt has cost Santorum a clear win in Iowa. And you have the nerve to argue that it’s Santorum who is hurting conservatives.
Newt’s been hurting conservatives in this race from day one, all based on the argument that he could carry the south.
He loses in South Carolina, that’s the end of the road for him.
“Rick Santorum is a much, much, much, much, much weaker version of Mike Huckabee.”
And Newt is a much, much, much, much, weaker version of McCain.
“Huntsman could teach Santorum a thing or two about understanding that living in a state for a year+, and finishing strong there, does not automatically make you a contender for the nomination.”
Well, titan, last I checked, Romney was ahead of Huntsmen in the delegate count.
NEWT IS BEHIND. Arguing that Santorum needs to drop up to help Newt is not going to happen, unless for some reason, Newt pulls ahead of him in delegate count.
Santorum can go and say, hey, look Newt - you are hurting the conservatives just like Huntsmen, you need to drop out. Because you are behind in the race, and I am ahead.
“Mitt is counting on money, Fox News, and the Establishment.
Newt is counting on Conservative pragmatism, money, and the Debates.
Santorum is counting on a series of never-ending miracles.”
Like in Iowa?
No, Santorum is counting on conservatives, principles (not pragmatism), and his Faith.
Principles > pragmatism, every time.
“Do not address me any more, please.”
When you stop posting threads saying that Santorum is done, I will stop replying to you.
Anyways, I’ve already pledged to back Newt should he (miraculously), win.
So you’re going to just have to deal with it until SC primary comes up.
Is it bad that that made me smile?
:)
SC is winner-take-all, actually.
So is FL.
