Mitt Quits, McCain reigns, Huck stuck.

Mitt Romney quits the race for the presidency, after having spent a recorded 35 million dollars on his campaign. "I feel I have to now stand aside, for our party and for our country," the former Massachusetts governor told the shocked crowd. mitt Romney is suspending his campaign, which means he can hold on to his delegates until the Republican National Convention this summer. He did not, as the press was speculating say a significant amount of positive things about John McCain.

His decision leaves Mike Huckabee in a lurch, as to whether or not to quit the race as well, as previously requested by Romney. Romney apparently decided to not be the spoiler himself, and not, as was speculated as well, because he's thinking of his future in the party. McCain is expected to start a dialog with the conservative wing of the party, many of whom are adamantly opposed to McCain for voting against the two tax cuts by president Bush, his views on immigration and calling them "agents of intolerance".

Bear walked into a bar. Bear said to Deer: may I please... have a drink?
And so Deer said to Bear: Why the big pause?

Thijs said...

didn't he say "dear deer, be a deer and... get me a drink"
to which deer replied:
"dear bear deer, if you can bear a beer, i'll be a deer and get you one with a cheer."
