In 2008 right after McCain suspended his campaign to go to DC and make a fool of himself with TARP, Morris said it was a brilliant move that just won the election for McCain. Enough said!

I can’t believe NBC and Politico are using a token Hispanic to ask questions only about (illegal) immigration. How racist of them!

Next up Jimmy Hoffa Jr. on sons of bitches.

Yup, he is doing well. I liked the way he helped Perry.

Romney & Perry definitely seem to be working together. Birds of a feather.

I don’t understand why not one of the candidates hasn’t called out NBC and Politico for their blatant racist tokenism.

Have you any idea how many independent Sarah Palin PACs are out there that have been collecting donations for God knows how long?
The second she announces she has access to not only the funds but the use of the volunteers running the PACs.
She has a huge organization in waiting and if she decides not to run,her endorsement will go a long ways towards picking the winner.
The Perry people have been nasty and hateful to both Palin and her supporters so it won't be him.

Huntsman would be the kind of president that Jack Bauer would have to give a lecture to.

Or he’ll decide to land in Austin and have a fundraiser followed by a helicopter ride to Bastrop where he can look concerned before he takes the money and runs. When he comes to Texas he always stops in Austin for some cash.

It’s the US-Mexico border, not the Texas-Mexico border. Secure it whatever it takes. And any water problems can be solved.
