Hah! I look forward to learning a bit more about the pizza guy.

Sometimes I think that politicians have no idea they're recorded when they speak, or that there is a thing called "google search".

 

Has anyone ever had Godfather's pizza?

 

Instead of putting the toppings on the cheese they put the cheese over the toppings.

It looks like sun baked bird shit but it's not bad.

 

Ummmm... I don't think I've had a taco pizza from either place.

 

Seems like the half-life of republican candidates is about 1 month. Maybe it would be a better system to have Romney go head-to-head with one candidate per month. Then if Romney is polling higher at the end of the month, he gets a new challenger. But if the challenger has higher poll numbers at the end of the month, he becomes the new champion.

There is far too much money in not running for President. Palin for example would have to take a sizeable pay cut AND people would actually point out she's full of shit. Not worth it to them. Money talks and bullshit doesn't run for President.

 

It's a mystery, all right. Here's a couple of possibilities:

1) Nobody else in the GOP wants to be president.
2) Everybody else decided that 2016 was a better time to run.

I'll let you decide which is more likely, and why.

How do you explain Mitt Romney, then?

He's not a real marketable figures like Palin o Gulianni or some others. For him, being president or running for president would be a huge step up for him.

 

I can see Romney getting the same forced, tepid support Dole & McCain had. I don't think it bodes well for the GOP despite some legit reservations by so-called moderates regarding another four years of Bama, especially if he keeps his promise to waste the first few years of his presidency hitting ctrl-z on everything the previous administration implemented.

 

I think a bigger issue is (and you kind of addressed it here) is that if the R's don't nominate someone who is somewhat moderate (Romney is, Huntsman is), they might all the sudden start really be producing a very fringe party.

I think most people, deep down inside, want people to be treated equally. And one party is producing candidates who are against that (despite what some people here want to imply about "lie-bruls", they actually aren't against peoples differences).
