Sub-Husker Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Are there more crazies out there today than in 1984? If so, Mondale's gonna be pissed. I don't think he's left his home since 11/7/84. More extreme and partisan... I think yeah. Link to comment
carlfense Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 <snip> And the Republican party has so lost its way. It's because they don't have a candidate that is sufficiently right wing. Buch of RINOs. Link to comment
knapplc Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 I just looked up what RINO actually means. Been hearing it a lot. Didn't know until today. Link to comment

knapplc Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 Welp. Perry's done. According to a tweet I just read, he's going to drop out today and endorse Newt Gingrich. In other news, a recount in Iowa says that Santorum may actually have won by 34 votes. Then it said they'll likely never know because there are "too many holes" in the count. So what good is the Iowa Caucus? Link to comment
Sub-Husker Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Perry's done. It must've been the criticisms he received from Turkey, where they called him an idiot and replayed his 'Oops Moment' numerous times. Link to comment

Maybe the fans in the stadium can "caucus" after the Heros Game to decide who should be the winner. Link to comment

knapplc Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Looks like Romney isn't a shoo-in right now after all. I thought he had this thing tied up after Florida. Shows what I know. New Pew survey: Among Republicans, Santorum in statistical dead heat with Romney Rick Santorum's popularity among Republican voters has blown up nationally in recent weeks, according to a new survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press that finds him in a statistical tie with Mitt Romney in the race for the White House. Santorum leads Romney 30 percent to 28 percent among Republicans and voters that lean Republican, according to the poll conducted Feb. 8-12. The survey, which has a margin of error of plus or minus five percentage points, shows that support for Santorum has more than doubled among the group since the poll was last taken in January. With 10 states set to vote on March 6, after primaries in Arizona and Michigan on Feb. 28th and caucuses in Washington on March 3, the focus of the race has transitioned from state-by-state contests to a nationwide contest, which makes national polling more relevant than it was earlier. The greatest thrust of support for Santorum comes from Republicans who associate themselves with the tea party. "Rick Santorum's support among Tea Party Republicans and white evangelicals is surging," the poll's overview concludes, while adding that a majority of Republicans would vote for Romney if he becomes the nominee.

HuskerShark Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 So I'm not following the GOP election real closely, but what's the deal with Ron Paul? Any way he gets the nomination, or is it pretty much impossible for him right now? Link to comment

Any way he gets the nomination, or is it pretty much impossible for him right now? Ron Paul cannot win the Republican nomination, even if he had the most delegates his nomination would be blocked at the convention. He is taking advantage of their debates to get his Libertarian message out, then will announce that he is running as an independent just before or after the convention. If Ron Paul was not in the Republican race now, he'd be getting the same attention that Gary Johnson is. Link to comment
