I'm thinking the santorum voters just know they're gonna get a second chane to vote for romney in November and wanted to spice up their lives a bit. I man imagine having to vote for Romney twice, sheesh.

Nobody really wants to drop out because of the good chance they could have a lead in the polls tomorrow or the next day. This race has been nuts.

Re: sharing an apartment
-Huntsman would be blasting prog at all hours, can't have that.-Bachmann would probably be the worst, imagine trying to have your significant other over.-Santorum I actually think might be ok, he'd probably be busy a lot and the bills would get paid on time. He'd probably get bitchy about little things though.-Romney would also pay the bills but I don't want to live with that asshole, he'd probably act super ingratiating and try to befriend me.-Perry would be a nightmare, I'd like spend no time at the place, he'd always be watching shitty TV and inviting his douchebag friends over-Gingrich would be annoying as hell but also the most entertaining, like I could start a 77 thread called "my asshole staying at my place is being a fuckin dick again" and it would be a gold mine every day

"my asshole staying at my place" uh i mean "this asshole etc..."
97.5% on intrade

Huntsman would be blasting Beefheart. Would love to discuss that with him, as well as talking about how all such experimentation is inherently left-wing.

no way. you make a pizza for the second time in a week and he just gives you this LOOK. he doesn't say anything, but it's clear that you're supposed to grow up and start cooking real meals.

romney is a robot. he enters the restroom on occasion in an attempt to reduce the suspicions of others, but all he does is look at himself in the mirror.

As usual, the Iowa caucuses decide nothing. I swear it is all a conspiracy put together by Days Inn and pancake restaurants who make out like bandits from the whole thing.
