It's too bad that his campaign failed, but I'm glad to see it happen early so the Republicans and McCain can focus up on beating the tar out of whichever Democrat is nominated.

Perhaps he ran out of magic underpants and decided to just go home and wash them!

Any info on where I could pick up a pair of such underpants would be appreciated.

Ask the mormons when they come knocking.

All we get around here is Jehovah's Witnesses.

[Diraker]

yeah here too. I thought though that further west there were more Mormons than JW. btw, I am so nice to the JW's that come to my door. I invite them in and chat.

Was anyone watching that Conservative Convention thing (or saw clips from) where Romney made his announcement? It was funny how Laura Ingram introduced Romney as "THE conservative candidate". I like when the crowd gasped and cried "nooo!" when Romney made his announcement. And I liked when the crowed boooed McCain when he talked about immigration.

Anyway the pundits are saying that Romney dropped out because he wants to make a run in 2012. I guess some of the republicans are giving up on this election and waiting until after four years of a democrat...much like how they did in 1976 and then 80 with Reagan.

I don't think Hillary can win the White House... but then again, never count out a Clinton.

Nice farewell from The Daily Show.
