Another one bits the dust
"I've never quit a day in my life. I've never quit in the face of adversity, and I'm not just about to quit on the future of America. I'm going to stay in this race and stay in this fight because our children and this country are worth the fight."
— Rick Perry, on Tuesday
"Today I am suspending my campaign."
— Rick Perry, today
And who shall be the next to fall...
I'm curious who is going to actually make it to the national convention. I hope Ron Paul makes it, even though the media persists in ignoring him, he continues producing remarkable results. Some pundits have speculated that he'll keep running to the convention in order to have the leverage to make a major speech and massively excoriate the Republicans for moving so far away from Republican values, and that's something that I would love to see.
At least the major nut jobs are now gone, now we get to see who cranks up their nut job level to keep the campaign field in a state of homeostasis.
I'm very intrigued by Stephen Colbert in South Carolina. He has a(n unknowingly) huge amount of money in his superpac. The problem is that the South Carolina ballot is locked, so he can't get on it. And Herman Cain is on it, and he can't get off. So Colbert is telling people that if they vote for Cain, that it's the same thing as voting for Colbert.
