He left out the most important primary . Our “First in the South” SC Republican primary has , except for the 2012 debacle picked the eventual GOP candidate all the way back to Reagan. SC has made the difference on several occasions. The one I participated in was 2000 , when a bunch of crazy hillbillies from SC turned the tide and elected President Bush. Just once I would like to see SC get it’s just due for the great state we are.
Keep dreaming, fool. Keep dreaming…
Yeah, SC put Bush 43 in office, and Bush 41 too, actually. So all you RWNJs that bash them as not conservative enough or for raising taxes, can put the blame on yourselves. The sane among us already do, but for different reasons.
Thanks to you and Bush for the Iraq War. Crazy hillbillies are even dumber than I thought.
Crazy hillbillies are even dumber than I thought…mebbe!

A big-city lawyer was representing the railroad in a lawsuit filed by an old rancher. The rancher’s prize bull was missing from the section through which the railroad passed. The
rancher only wanted to be paid the fair value of the bull. The case was scheduled to be tried before the justice of the peace in the back room of the general store. The attorney for the railroad immediately cornered the rancher and tried to get him to settle out of court. The lawyer did his best selling
job, and finally the rancher agreed to take half of what he was asking. After the rancher had signed the release and took the check, the young lawyer couldn’t resist gloating a little over his success, telling the rancher, ‘You know, I hate to
tell you this, old man, but I put one over on you in there. I couldn’t have won the case. The engineer was asleep and the fireman was in the caboose when the train went through your ranch that morning. I didn’t have one witness to put on
the stand. I bluffed you!’ The old rancher replied, ‘Well, I’ll tell you, young feller, I was a little worried about winning that case myself, because that bull came home this morning.’
Iowa…. where farmers thin the herd.
So what?!?? I don’t care if the candidates go to everyone’s houses for dinner in IOWA and NH. They are still residents in states whose values and perspectives don’t necessarily match much of the population. And anyone who stands and listens to the likes of Rick Santorum, Ben Carson, Bobby Jindal, etc shouldn’t be allowed to choose the next Lay’s flavor, let alone POTUS.
If they cause the any of the of candidates to drop out of the herd, then they have served a purpose.
The same could be said for the likes of Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders Elizabeth Warren, etc.
