Now someone else needs to step up and take out that socialist Huckabee.

If this is true, I am sad.

Fred, you will always have my respect and your Mama is in my prayers. God bless you.

It is cold and rainy here in North Georgia. Matches my mood completely. I am very sad about this. God Bless you and your family Senator!

As for the race as it will stand now, I cannot support Huckabee or McCain under any circumstances. Looks like I will have to try to find some enthusiasim for Mitt.

BOO! HOO! :(

Sad thing.

2. McCain / Thompson 2008?

Grumpy Old Men 2?

:rofl:

To be fair, I have close family members who are the same age, who I don't consider old. These guys just exude oldness for some reason.

3. i say they stay home and don't vote...

4. Of all the Republican candidates, he was the closest to Regan

To be any closer to Regan, he would have to actually be dead.

5. And I always thought that Freepers were of the opinion that actors and celebrities should stay

out of politics, you'd think they'd be cheering!
