‘I should not be considered. Period. End of story’

Posted by | April 12, 2016 17:04 | Filed under: Politics


Paul Ryan has said a definitive no.

House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan said Tuesday that he would absolutely not be drafted as a presidential candidate.

As businessman Donald Trump, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and Ohio Gov.John Kasich vie to win the GOP’s nomination, many pundits had speculated that Ryan could have entered the fray during a brokered Republican National Convention in July.

“Let me be clear: I do not want, nor will I accept the nomination for our party,” Ryan said.

    Remember when conservatives HAMMERED Hillary for being “coronated” for the party nomination?

    Now, a whole lot of Republicans want to coronate their nominee!

    But, not one in a 100 will detect a hypocrisy on their part. Conservatives seem incapable of self-reflection.

      If they don’t go with Trump or Cruz, there will be riots in streets and the republican party will be finished. Trump will go 3rd party and take half the base with him.
      Ryan is smart enough to know this and will wait for 2020 when he has a real chance.

    So, the part time congressman in a part time leadership job, takes time off from taking time off…says he won’t take the full time job…even if they beg him…what a bunch of morons who would even think Ryan would be a serious type person for President…oh wait…Ryan would be that “Hand to Hold the Presidential Pen”….that would sign everything the Republican congress sent to him…that just made me throw up in my mouth a little….

    They aren’t looking for the best candidate, they are looking for the least crazy one.

    • Mike April 13th, 2016 at 18:50

      There is no “least crazy” in the republican party…not anymore at least

    I should not be considered, but stay tuned for late braking news

  8. bpollen April 13th, 2016 at 03:04

    I don’t actually think anybody was considering him. I think it is just a nasty rumor started by that most recent failure for Vice President, current failure at Speaker of the House, the one, they only, Paul “I’m Not Running” Ryan.

  9. cwazycajun April 13th, 2016 at 13:56
