    This afternoon Bachmann dropped out of the race.

    Talk about economic stimulus!

    Don't you just love campaign finance...If only we could spend that money on something useful.
    Looks like Romney didn't spend one dollar more than he actually needed to, to win.

    I'd say one could make the argument that he can budget pretty good then, eh?

    The best part is that she didn't even take one single county in her own state. I guess they must know her well enough..........

    More of a shocker was they allowed voting on hand written ballots (actually sticky notes), no voter id and even last minute registration!

    Or, as in 2000, who interprets the vote counts.
    2011: 12.73%; 2012: 16.44 %, 2013: 17.46%, 2014: 5.35 ; Past 12 months 6.81% as of 01/31/2015

    You guys really seem to be concerned with the GOP nomination process, I think it would be best for you to concentrate on your own candidate instead. Watch SC they will pick the candidate as always, my home state! Don't worry so much, who ever it is he will beat the socks off of Obama.

    Oh I'm terrified about any of these imps riding the tide of this lousy economy into office. But the real election season will be painful and long enough.

    In the mean time, this is such fun to sit back and watch. "Debate"-o-rama was all about free publicity...Mission Accomplished!
