Rick Perry Out
And then there were four.
- RICK PERRY MAY DROP OUT OF PRESIDENTIAL RACE TODAY, CNN SAYS
It appears even Bank of America (which had a hilarious and brilliant $600 million Goodwill impairment today - on what? The fantastically prfoitable Countrywide acquisition) could not "help him out."
Of course, everyone is now expecting tonight's impromptu ABC "Career ending" interview with Mrs. ex-Gingrich, which may make it a trio. That may happen even despite Perry's imminent enrosement.
From Politico:
- Rick Perry is expected to drop out later this morning at an 11 a.m. press conference and endorse Newt Gingrich, two sources confirmed to POLITICO.

After seeing his attempt at running, it makes me wonder how in the hell he ever got elected in Texas. He's vapid.
He was elected because the D candidate's lips were always moving so we knew he was lying. We already had kinda house trained Perry, so it was better the snake you know than the one you don't. There are 4 women voters in my household and I got that information from them. Something about advocating late term abortion vs a shot that was voluntary.
Unless the GOP candidate in Texas runs a campaign as monumentally bad as Clayton Williams once ran against Ann Richards, the GOP candidates often win statewide elections.
And now it is only one more RP to go
Being from Tejas and having read alot about Califas; I would like to share the following information;
Reconquista has already happened. The only negotiation left is when all the benefits based on false ID will be re-hypothecated by the feds and of course for the RP diehards there is the anchor baby citizenship thing.
And then there were 4....bankster puppets.
Ron Paul is a bankster puppet?
Absolutely
And I thought I'd already heard every absurdist claim about the guy when I saw someone accuse him of being "pro-choice".
I'd LOVE to see the rational on "Paul as bankster puppet"
Santorum has been declared final winner of Iowa....
Who?
Typical ZH... a simple fact from the Newswire gets junked...
"Iowa awash in Santorum!!" (hey google it)
Santorum certainly did come from behind....
+1 Yup. I see a nomination coming down the pipe.
I don't know what to think.
There will be one sooner or later.
I just hope the Nation knows that Obamer must not be re-elected.
Shocked, I tells ya.
Who's next?
All of them accept Romney and Paul. Jus sayin'
Lizzy36,
We don't vote them in, Diebold does along with the manipulated electoral collage. All these candidates (accept Ron Paul) makes GW Bush look good.
Turkey bids a warm farewell to him.
If Romney wins and Obama cleans his clock, (a likely scenario since Mitt is a PE pirate, an easy target and the Evangelicals are not going to go out of their way to help him) then the GOP will have some serious soul searching to do...
How with such a flawed sitting President combined with a crap-tastic economy and all that related stuff could it be that the best the GOP could muster is Mitt Romney.... I have *never* seen a bigger collection of radically stupid asshats, clowns and sanctimonious pricks on display....
I never liked Bob Dole, the 96 nominee... but in comparison to this collection of idiots and two-faced bastards, he is a wise statesman of Jeffersonian proportions...
Sorry Ron P. is a RINO, he should be the Libertarian Party Candidate... He has about as much in common with mainstream GOP thought as a seaslug does with an Albatross.... maybe that is why I at least respect him even though I don't agree with him on everything....
Ron Paul would have to substantially change his current tune if he were to run as a Libertarian Party candidate - either that or the party would have some serious friction & probable splits.
why people can't "get" that RP is a career Republican with some very right wing personal beliefs, is beyond me.
CA, as much as I respect you, I still believe that you are still letting your misguided belief that Ron Paul's personal opinions on abortion, and his federalist stance on laws governing abortion, are somehow violations of his fundamental libertarian principles, get in the way of your objectively and honestly evaluating his worth as a candidate.
if Paul wants to pass laws that enforce his personal beliefs about abortion, then I will have an opinion on that.
particularly in light of reading some very interesting history he has with fundamentalist religious types.
this "devolving" to States having the rights was initially of interest to me, as I'm very much about keeping everything local - but, that does NOT appear to be the agenda here, and this agenda is well-documented on the web.
again, if he wants to pass laws that limit the rights to make personal decisions about individual bodies, on a case by case basis, then I'm going to not agree. ever.
and akak, I respect you, and your opinions, as well - this isn't personal, this is about sovereignty.
Now have Gingrich follow Perry and bow out as well.
Hope he does'nt endorse RP.
& I LOVE RON PAUL
Crap!! The most entertaining nutcases are dropping out.
Cain come back!!
Pa's got things for you to do! And Mother wants you!
I know she does!
Cain!
Cain!
Come back!
Perry to endorse Gingrich.
Looks like Gingrich is going after the retarded vote (although actual an insult to retarded) with Perry & Palin endorsements.
How do yanks elect such ignorant Governors? That is a serious question. Because Palin and Perry almost have to try and be as ignorant as they are.
"How do yanks elect such ignorant Governors?"
They often vote for the candidate of the political party they prefer.
First off some of us are not a Yank, but Johnny.
South Carolina has a history of taking matters into it's own hands.
Savvy?
And such a stellar track record of success at secession too.
Call it the inevitable by-product of an innate distrust of anyone potentially smarter than yourself.
I do like that... Clearly applies to Gore but why was Clinton loved? (check the approval ratings before you junk)
Is it because the American people *need* a president that has obvious pedestrian flaws???
US elects the politician who pretends to genuinely love Gawd* the most. In the case of a tie, we go by looks. As you can see, it's been working just fine.
* It has to be the true Gawd. Not one of those fake gawds worshipped by the damned.
Well, I HATE the false, monotheistic "god" of the vicious, intolerant, three warmongering Abrahamic religions.
I'm still waiting for the first open and honest pagan presidential candidate.
yikes! me too! hah.
so let's see, who's left?
two fake conservative globalist, corporate NWO rebulicrat whores who will roll over and turn whatever trick you want for the right price.
one guy who's warmongering blood-lust and outright glee at the thought of wielding the power of the CnC of the US armed force, giving him the ability to rid the world of the scourge of brown people sitting on lots of sand and oil is just absurd and borders on mental illness.
...and Ron Paul who is, the crazy, unelectable one, because he is neither of the above.
my guess is Mitt will win, he seems to be the banksters favorite. after which he will loose in he presidential election and we will get 4 more years of peas in our pots and WTF, not that it matters, either way the globalist bankster powers that be get their teleprompter.
Rick "Toll Road" Perry and Mitt "Cayman Bank" Romney will be on the Jerry Springer show this Spring. I'm looking forward to it.
See ya, Stupid Jr!
I'd vote for the Grinch (Gingrich) over Mittens (Romney)
I'd vote for Mittens over the Grinch
Please vote. I know a lot of people here (probably all) would choose Ron Paul over both. But I am curious how ZH readers would compare the Grinch to Mittens. In my opinion Mittens is just as bad if not worse the the Grinch. While Gingrich is obviously corrupt, Mittens has so far done an excellent job of hiding his skeletons in the closet.
Gingrich = CFR, Trilatteral and Agenda 21 lover.
Mittens, Banker sock puppet, you know, kinda like the Communist that's installed now. Hopeless Change comming to a Nation near you.
Sending National Defence Contracts to Brazil now, not building our own Fighters here anymore. The Osprey is build in Australia now too.
"Mittens has so far done an excellent job of hiding his skeletons in the closet"
Say.. Like, destroying all his Bain Capitol (Bain means to destroy) Employee hard drives before he left there? That one little bone? There is more...
Go ahead and piss on Obama, lord know he's earned it...
But, whatever the fuck he is, he is not a Marxist or a Socialist. Can you get that through your skull?
It is called Fascism... the marriage of corporate and state interests....
A Socialist would have had the bankers in chains...
A Marxist would have lined them up against the wall and shot them...
Agreed, I should have said Fascist with Communistic tendencies. Oligarchy would have worked also, my bad.
All according to the Ruling Class Master Plan. Next to go will be Santorum, the last of the conservatives. Then gNewt will go. Then Paul will be ignored. Willard Romney will be crowned in short order and the cheers from Ruling Class losers, Neo-Keynesians and all lovers of Big Government will be wild and lusty! And it won't matter a damn if Paul throws a snit and runs 3rd party or not...Obama wins. People are suicidal and there is no stopping it now, just sit back and enjoy the ride! (Going downhill is easy, just relax!)
rick perry has deep connections to israel.
sorry, double post again. screw you, ipad.
Perry backs Gingrich. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Tough shit, Ron Paul. Gingrich is on the move.
Paul won't bail though, he is too deluded to read the writing on the wall. Paul is following the footsteps of his identical twin, Jesse Jackson, and will continue to run despite being widely rejected by the populace.
GINGRICH 2012
Rut Row!! Newt is Toast with his Gawd Luvin Evangelicals. In Leaked video ex-wife says Newt wanted an "Open Marriage".
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/01/19/1056022/-Breaking:-Newt-Wanted-...
Daily Kos?! LOL!
Ron Paul is so much better than this guys. These guys are fucking hilarious!
'Nuff said!
SAVE A PRETZEL FOR THE GAS JETS!?
Rick Perry soundbite.

I've got a Gingroid on my butt. It's Giant Douche vs. Turd Sandwich! Gosh what will I do, there's only a lobbyist and a Constitution supporter left.
