pawatercooler.com has the results of the straw poll that for some reason doesn't attract as much attention as the one in Iowa.
In the interest of fair and balanced coverage that Fox News has pioneered I decided to put up the unofficial Gort42 campaign photos of some of the candidates. Please send pics of the candidates if you have better ones.
Former PA Senator and long time Virginia resident Rick Santorum topped the poll with 138 votes out of 388 tallied. The horse race coverage people like percentages so that is 35.5%
Mitt Romney came in 2nd with 98 or 25.5%. The dog that he strapped to the top of his car for a 12 hour ride didn't have a vote.
Flavor of the month Texas Governor Rick Perry got 71 votes of the faithful (18.3%). If he signs a few more death warrants he may increase that percentage.
Ron Paul continues to be the Rodney Dangerfield of this race, no respect at all. 21 votes
Jon Huntsman may be the most qualified guy in the race after being Governor of Utah and Ambassador to China. He even speaks a foreign language that probably disqualifies him with the English Only Crowd. In today's Republican Party that is a handicap. Look for him 2016. Tom Ridge endorsed him. 18 votes.
Herman Cain. 16 votes.
Newt Gingrich is someone I sometimes liked when he was talking ideas instead of his scorched earth policy of partisan warfare. 14 votes.
Last in the poll was Michelle Bachman.
ALex said: Only 12 for Michelle Bachmann? Maybe that anti-vaccination insanity had a stronger effect that I thought.
Whoever wins the Republican nomination has to run against this guy. 0 votes.

Sad part, is that if the economy doesn't pick up and/or the President doesn't grow a pair, one of this wack pack is going to become President by default.
Come on Pres. Obama! Channel FDR, Harry Truman and Bill Clinton...with a little TR thrown in just for good measure!!!
It is hard to channel people of strength and character when one doesn't have either. I may not agree at all with Obama's ideology, but candidate Obama was someone who had caught my interest. President Obama is a weak, mealy, jelly-spined person, more concerned with reading speeches than talking to the people. He has allowed a man who cries at t.v. commercial push him around. I didn't think there was a bigger wuss in D.C. than the current speaker of the house; not only was I wrong, I never expected it to be the president. But then again, a man dwarfed in physical presence by his wife should have been a telling sign. Woman like the first lady, Amazonian and strong willed; if they don't go for their physical equal, will go after someone they can dominate.
WHy is it when a woman is strong and capable we call her an Amazon.
When a man is the same we call him a leader.

Amazons are tall, powerfully built, self-sufficient and strong women. I use it to describe myself often. I am over 6 ft tall, with a lean muscular feminine frame. It wasn't meant to me an insult, it was meant to be a compliment. I guess you are one of those little wussy men who couldn't last with me either emotionally, intellectually or sexually.
