Rick Perry Drops Out
Rick Perry is suspending his presidential campaign.
…Perry on Friday suspended his bid for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination, facing dwindling resources, bare bones staff and a staggeringly low position in the polls.
“We have a tremendous field – the best in a generation – so I step aside knowing our party is in good hands, and as long as we listen to the grassroots, the cause of conservatism will be too,” Perry planned to say, according to prepared remarks released by his campaign.

He had to drop out early. He had a hot date tonight and didn’t want all of those press people following him around.
robert September 12th, 2015 at 10:55
A hot date in st. Louis mo ? Very interesting ……….
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 12:24
More likely, he has a Learjet standing by to take him to San Francisco.
azeyote September 11th, 2015 at 17:26

Sixteen wheels on my wagon, and I’m still rolling along.

oh, is THAT what he was doing?
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 02:05
And you thought he was biting a Tootsie Roll.

and so began the great 2016 Exodus from the SS RepubliKon rapidly sinking into the fascist abyss from which it arose.

And the short bus gets a little shorter and a little less dumb. Not much, but a little.
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 02:03
There is still plenty of dumb to go around and around and around.
nola878 September 11th, 2015 at 18:50
Well, on the bright side he doesn’t have to remember three things any more!
alpacadaddy September 11th, 2015 at 23:00
I’m not sure ‘Governor Goodhair’ could even count to three if you spotted him the ‘one’ and the ‘three’, but at least Molly Ivins can RIP tonight!
amersham46 September 11th, 2015 at 18:54
Well he could be call “leader of the pack” now
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 02:02
How can you be called a leader when you fell out of the Back Door of the Republican Clown Bus ?
amersham46 September 12th, 2015 at 20:34
way thing look the bus only runs in reverse and down hill
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 21:18
I could make a comment about the bus having a hairy big crack up, but if I did , I would get kicked off of this site, . So, I won’t.
Carla Akins September 11th, 2015 at 19:09
He was still in the race?
DogsRgoodpeople September 11th, 2015 at 19:13
Yeah, his “dropping out” speech may have been longer than the time he spent in the race.
Carla Akins September 11th, 2015 at 20:45
*snicker
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 02:00
I ate one of those today. They are a good candy bar.
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 01:59
He thought so.
majii September 11th, 2015 at 19:22
It seems that everyone saw this coming before Perry did. Nothing is free. When Perry couldn’t pay his staffers, he knew it wouldn’t be long before he had to bail out of the race. I doubt anyone will miss him. I know I won’t.
Mike September 11th, 2015 at 19:24
“…couldn’t pay his staffers..” Cuz he used most of the campaign money to pay his lawyers…
alpacadaddy September 11th, 2015 at 22:55
oooh, zing!
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 01:59
And first Class Airline tickets and Luxury hotel rooms and fancy dinners. Campaign costs do run high.
Mike September 11th, 2015 at 19:23
This is the first time I paid attention to anything he’s had to say…and he didn’t even say it…it was a press release.
Gotta love the 2016 goat rodeo….round em up, ship em out…
Dwendt44 September 11th, 2015 at 19:26
He can now run for the House seat that Gohmer will leave open since he’s leaving ’cause the Iran deal is going through.
whatthe46 September 11th, 2015 at 21:44
but won’t he be in prison?
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 01:57
Hopefully

Ricky Bobby couldn’t debate and still polled “0% +/- 2% Margin of Error” same as in 2012~ Ughh… ugh…What was the 3rd thing? C’mon guys help me out here… Ron? Anybody…
whatthe46 September 11th, 2015 at 22:14
laughing.
The Original Just Me September 12th, 2015 at 01:56
You’re still at it. GOOD
Tommie September 11th, 2015 at 22:09
He got his “campaign money”, now he is going back to his ranch with that famous racist title!
William September 11th, 2015 at 23:42
Poor Richard, We hardly knew thee.

He’s not the only asshole from Texas.
