2012 republican presidential nominee III: can romney get santorum out of his hair?

It's a sentiment that's bubbled up from time to time -- I think even Chuck Colson figured it out, but then again he'd have a special insight into the situation on all fronts.

Have you actually bookmarked Christianity Today?

That sounds like some weird evangelical come-on.

The Mormon candidate has a traditional marriage and the Christian candidate wants an open marriage. What fun!

How many kids does Willard have...like 4 or 5? I still don't get the impression that he's even interested in sex.

Don't worry: he'll look for the position paper on it.

that will be a short paper, considering he's only gonna recognize one position

I still don't get the impression that he's even interested in sex.

This always strikes me as a weird thing to say, like everyone who's interested in sex comports themselves like Blowfly.

How long until we find out that Santorum has a dog mistress.

Boy, I don't know--I was all set to see Walkover tonight, this Jerzy Skolimowski film that I think is somewhat hard to see, and now I'm having second thoughts about staying home for the debate after today's polls and all the other news.(Morbius drops dead.)

the highlights will be there tomorrow, go see your movie

"Got yer face! *riiiiiip*"

Actually, he's picking her up off the ground.

"Well, now you don't have to worry about what I smell like, do you?"

"I'll hold your nose. You go ahead and vote."

"Don't worry about the solvency of Social Security. Just relax."

i am legit surprised gingrich has turned this into a real run.

HE SPEAKS!

Charleston, S.C. — Speaking at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, Herman Cain just announced his presidential endorsement.

After saying that it would not please the media (but it would please the American people), Cain said he was not endorsing a candidate, but instead, would endorse “we the people.”

yiiiiikes

(speaking of "uppity" on the other thread)

i'm afraid 'we the people' did not submit enough signatures to be on the virginia ballot

okay when that lady says "thank you for putting Mr. JUAN WILLIAMS in his place", there is a split second where an "oh shit" expression goes across Gingrich's place, it's hilarious

TNC on that: http://m.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/01/real-racists-do-real-things/251625/

Yeah, but then he's all

yeah the mask snaps back very quickly, in fact the transition for "yikes" to "aw shucks, me?" is a lot of what makes it funny

Despair sets in at HotAir:

Good to know that we finally have an a Not Romney. Too bad it’s a guy who was famously unpopular the last time he held major public office, who couldn’t pull it together enough to get on the ballot in his home state, who’s flirted with the individual mandate and cap-and-trade, and whose penchant for loose-cannon grand pronouncements is guaranteed to generates oodles of “unhelpful” news cycles if he’s the nominee. Come next week, your choice will be between him, Captain Flipflop, and Ron Paul. Worst field ever. Ever.

hahaha Ron Paul doesn't even merit a disparaging nickname, he's so terrible

Ugh, I FB-friended one of my wife's long-lost crazy uncles over Christmas break and man, if that guy can't find a way to shoehorn a "Ron Paul 2012" into everything...

"And what did you have for the holiday dinner."

"Hard money."

Huzzah.

In an interview on Sean Hannity’s radio show today, Palin dismissed Marianne Gingrich’s allegations as “old news” and contended that it will help the former House Speaker “soar even more.”

Also, uh?

Former South Carolina First Lady Jenny Sanford will respond to Newt Gingrich’s ex-wife Marianne’s ABC News interview in an MSNBC exclusive, the cable news network announces. Her interview will be on Chris Matthews' Hardball in the 5 p.m. ET hour on MSNBC.

Which means it's happened or happening now...anyone?

Meanwhile, can't wait for the reports from Alfred and Daniel Esq. about whatever flood of BS ads will be heading their way from all parties, thus:

The Romney-backing “super PAC” Restore Our Future is spending big in Florida, dropping $1,539,255.73 in Florida media buys to oppose Newt Gingrich on Wednesday and Thursday, according to FEC filings. Restore Our Future also spent $83,271.37 for Florida direct mail opposing Santorum and $214,377.56 in support of Romney.

And:

Newt Gingrich's campaign is running an anti-Romney Spanish-language ad on major Miami radio stations, per The Miami Herald:

In the piece, a man's voice (not Gingrich) calls Mitt Romney a "liberal" who is "anti-immigrant" and may have "fame" but not be up to the job of president. Perhaps most damning, the ad says, "Mitt Romney goes around using Castro phrases," referring to the 2008 presidential campaign when Romney, campaigning in Miami, mistakenly associated a Fidel Castro slogan with a free Cuba. ....

Here's the text of the latter portion of the ad. The translation is ours.

Newt Gingrich is a candidate who has committed himself to the Hispanic people, a Republican in the style of Ronald Reagan with experience. Unlike Mitt Romney, who goes around using Castro phrases, Newt Gingrich fought against the regime alongside Ileana and Lincoln to approve the Helms-Burton law. He supported the creation of Radio and TV Martí and is in favor of prosecuting the Castro brothers for bringing down the Brothers to the Rescue planes. Newt Gingrich has given his word to the Hispanic community in writing and won't let us down.

Well at least it's not French.
