First, Tommy (The Other) Thompson turned a minor gaffe in the MSNBC South Carolina debate when answering a question on whether a small business could fire a homosexual (a trap question if there ever was one) into a big one by apologizing again and again and again and again and again and again after first blaming his hearing aid. Memo for Tommy; unless you are the most-liberal Pubbie in a primary or a ‘Rat, apologizing again and again and again and again after inserting your foot in your mouth is only going to encourage the presstitutes to keep going after you. Last I checked, while you’re no conservative, there are at least 2 candidates more liberal than you in the Pubbie primary.
Then, ABC News tries to make a big deal over a donation that Ann Romney, Mitt’s wife made to Planned Parenthood back when both Romneys were pro-abortion (H/T – Matt Lewis). Do note that there is no evidence that Mitt, the Republican version of Flipper Kerry, donated to Planned Parenthood.
Now, mere hours after that meltdown, The New York Times is reporting Rudy Giuliani, who actually did donate to Planned Parenthood in the past, is planning on reaffirming his pro-abortion creds in a bid to use the large liberal states of Super Duper Tuesday to get him the nomination (H/T – Allahpundit and Jim Robinson). I don’t think I can put it better than AP – “Or, to put it slightly differently, ignore the deep red states he needs to win in November in favor of blue states he has little chance of stealing from the Democrats. Sounds like a plan.” (emphasis in the original).
And this one is a special for Nick. Ace dug up a few video and audio clips of Ron Paul channeling Rosie O’Donnell on Iran, 9/11, and the Fed. OOPS!
I think Uncle Jimbo is right when he said that Fred Thompson doesn’t need to get in just yet. By the time September rolls around, I expect nobody will be left on the Republican side to oppose him.
