2016 Presidential Toaster (f/k/a Christie Suspends Campaign)

#1 Post by ten96lt » Wed Feb 10, 2016 1:25 pm

CBS News on Twitter has announced that Chris Christie has suspended his presidential campaign after garnering only 8% in the New Hampshire Primary yesterday. The next question will be when Carly Fiorina will throw in the towel.

Personally, I wonder who sent him to be a political assassin to Rubio (which may have been his swan song).

Wonder no more: Carly just quit.

I'm waiting for Fiorina to blame ABC for not letting her debate with the rest of them, leaving her with perennial alleged candidate Jim Gilmore.

Yep, I called it on Tuesday night. Erstwhile great white hope of the GOP and deep-fried state fair butter sculpture Chris Christie couldn't do to Donald Trump what he allegedly did to the George Washington Bridge. And Carly Fiorina gets to go back to her day job of writing 101 Dalmatians fan fiction.

Did Marco Rubio sleep with Christie's wife or something?

I'm trying to figure out how he became the candidate Christie has focused his attacks on.

Saw this on Twitter. Chris Christie endorsed the only candidate who owns an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Ben Carson is for all intents and purposes out of the running. He has not officially suspended his campaign (yet), but has announced he will not be partaking in the next Fox News GOP Debate as he sees there is no path forward in the race. http://abc7chicago.com/news/ben-carson- ... n/1227927/

Has anyone noticed that Ben Carson was leading in the polls when he had his picture taken with BiT? Not that I'm saying there is any connection here, but ......

If there is any connection, any possibility of a connection, I will, for the love of country, keep my current avatar until the end of the Republican convention.
