Thompson Drops Out of GOP Race

Republican Fred Thompson pulled out of the race for the white house Tuesday after disappointing turn-out in the previous months Primaries and Caucuses.

Thompson has been criticized for running a "lazy campaign" after skipping a Republican debate, and being short in campaign advertising. I personally don't remember ever hearing his name mentioned between his announced candidacy in September and now.

Now the only question is will he sponsor McCain? Well, he denounced his candidacy for President today, and has yet to announce plans to sponsor another candidate. A CNN analyst speculated that perhaps he is holding out to garner support for Romney. Either way, if he chooses to do so, he has till Feb. 5 or "Super Tuesday" to make up his mind.

Huckabee claims if Thompson would have pulled out of the race before South Carolina he would have garnered his votes to win over McCain. So, if this is true I am sure glad he stayed through South Carolina!

Huckabee is considering his options after coming in a surprise (at least to him) second in South Carolina to McCain and he is now facing money troubles. Apparently Jesus doesn't pay well.

Huckabee talks crazy again

Mike Huckabee, the surprise underdog Republican candidate just reminded me that he is crazy and evangelical. He may be charismatic, but he sure is dumb.

Here's why:

When talking about his hopes to change the constitution, he says,

"Well, I don’t think that’s a radical view to say we’re going to affirm marriage. I think the radical view is to say that we’re going to change the definition of marriage so that it can mean two men, two women, a man and three women, a man and a child, a man and animal. Again, once we change the definition, the door is open to change it again. I think the radical position is to make a change in what’s been historic"


since when is gay marriage the same as a man and an animal...well, naw, just kidding.


I-N-S-A-N-E!

luckily, he isn't experiencing the same luck he did in Iowa, and he won't win the nomination.
