The amazing thing about this nickname is that it's as clever for the thousandth time as it was the first time.  :thumbsup:

He was the governor of Texas for quite some time, not some random guy on the street.  I would have expected that he is smarter than that.  We are not talking about "if raising taxes is good", which is always debatable.  We are talking about if the US should default.  That's firmly in crazy territory.  It is like asking if it is a good idea to launch a nuclear missle at Moscow unprovoked. 

I'd like to hear the actual quote.  Not that I don't trust Yi, of course.  I searched for it and could only find recent quotes from Perry kissing Trump's ass in hopes of a VP spot.

I heard it on CNN.  They showed a clip.

:huh: Believe me, I always gave you the benefit of the doubt and assumed that you were never trying to impress anyone, at anything.

Burn.

Anywho, a WV exit poll found that half of Bernie voters would have voted Trump had they been able to :lol:

On it!

Couldn't do it boss. :weep:

All I could find was articles about Rick Perry saying he is "absolutely open" to being Der Donald's VP.

Who might these five or six be?  :hmm:

Christie and Gingrich are in there for sure. Maybe governor LePage of Maine.

I hope he does makes a crazy pick out of the blue though, like Jim Webb or something.

QuoteJUST IN: @AP Interview: Trump says he's narrowed potential VPs to 5 or 6 experienced politicians, has not ruled out Christie.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Oh yeah, also heard that the head of the Veepcom is now the campaign manager, dude who tore off that chick reporter's arm and beat her on the head with it.

Gingrich might be a good, political-DC-operator choice...but a general election killer.

He'd be kind of a Dick Cheney-esque choice, but with far more baggage, and far less charisma (or more negative charisma, depending on how you look at it).

Not crazy enough. How about Hastert?
