Well, the Governator has made his endorsement--and it wasn't for Mitt Romney! From Reuters News:
SIMI VALLEY, California (Reuters) - California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger will endorse Republican John McCain's bid for president, McCain campaign aides said on Wednesday.
Schwarzenegger, a moderate Republican who had largely stayed out of the presidential race, is expected to formally announce his backing for McCain when the two appear together at an event in Los Angeles on Thursday, the aides said.
Schwarzenegger's support could give McCain, the front-runner for the Republican nomination in November's presidential election, an important boost in California, which is among more than 20 states that will hold nomination contests on "Super Tuesday" next week.
The Los Angeles Times said Schwarzenegger made the decision to back McCain, an Arizona senator, after former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani dropped out of the race.
"He is good friends with both (Giuliani and McCain) and thought they were both strong candidates," a source close to Schwarzenegger told the newspaper. "With Giuliani dropping out, that cleared the way for the governor's decision."
The latest polls show McCain leading his chief rival, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, by double digits among likely California primary voters, although some four in 10 said they could change their minds before they vote.
California, which has more than 15 million registered voters, will choose 173 Republican delegates on Super Tuesday.
I WUV YOU GOVERNATOR!Now can you terminate Mitten's ass for me?
It appears now that McCain has two Hollywood "Macho Men" with Sly and Schwarzenegger--and Mitt Romney doesn't even have a "Macho Man" to his credit. And in a sense, I do feel sorry for poor Mittens--he doesn't have a Hollywood "Macho Man" in his camp, while McCain has two. Even Mike Huckabee has a Hollywood "Macho Man" with Karate Chuck. It is sad to think how Stallone, Schwarzenegger, and Karate Chuck could gang up and beat poor Mittens to a pulp on the school playground. Mitt Romney needs his own "Macho Man." So I thought I would hunt around on the internet for some possible candidates, and I found these two guys:
We're coming for ya Mitt!You can't find anyone with more machismo than SpongeBob SquarePants, and Patrick. Look at that square face, and the intense concentration that SpongeBob projects--he's almost a twin to Mitt Romney! They both have that strong, "macho" look. SpongeBob looks good in a suit--Mitt Romney looks good in a suit. And let's not forget that SpongeBob has excellent business credentials with his incredible fry-cooking work at the Krusty Krab. Mitt Romney has shown his own experience in business and crisis management during his vacation days with the family dog. Now look at Patrick, with his intense, angry eyes. Patrick has an even meaner look than SpongeBob, and yet he is one of the most loyal friends to SpongeBob. You're getting two "Macho Men" here for the price of one! Finally, how many starfish do you know that wear green and purple cammo pants? That takes some pretty hefty machismo!
And so Mitt, I would suggest that you reach out, and ask for the endorsement from these two, tough, Hollywood macho stars. With SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick behind you, you could take on the rest of the GOP candidates and their Hollywood wimps. Can you see Karate Chuck peeing in his pants at the sight of these two? Together SpongeBob and Patrick can make Sly Stallone slink away, or the Governator give up, returning McCain to the wimpy little brat that he is. You could then regain the front-runner status that you have longed for since--I don't think you were ever a front-runner. With Spongebob and Patrick at your side, you will certainly get the Bikini Bottom vote, and all the clams that come with it. You'll become a winner Mitt! And when you do destroy McCain and Huckabee, make sure you give thanks for the support of these two, great, Hollywood icons.
If McCain wins Illinois, I see him as the candidate. Poor Mitt. At least he looks good on a podium but besides his looks, I just don't see it happening for him.
ReplyDeleteHello Jude: I have a feeling that McCain will probably end up as the Republican nominee. McCain has been able to keep the GOP debate focused on the Iraq war, and ultimately on what he thinks is his foreign policy strengths. McCain's argument has been the surge is working, therefore we should stay the course in Iraq for another 100 years, and defeat the evil terrorists. In one sense, it is a somewhat uplifting statement to give to the Republican voters, who have probably become disheartened at the current incompetence and corruption of this Bush administration.
ReplyDeleteNow let us look at Mitt Romney. Romney's campaign strategy has been to push this message that Washington is broke, and only an "outsider" like Mitt Romney can fix Washington. Right now, Romney is trying to tie the "Washington is broke" theme with the slowing economy, concluding that Romney is the best choice for the Oval Office because his business credentials. But Romney's message is falling on deaf ears. I don't Republican voters want to hear this message of "Washington is broke," because they are embarrassed that they voted in this Bush administration that broke Washington in the first place. In addition, by admitting that Washington is broke, the GOP is opening itself up to Democratic Party attacks that it has been the GOP that has been in power and allowed George W. Bush to send this country over the cliff. Why continue voting for the Republican Party to fix the problems they originally created, when you can vote for real change with the Democratic Party? So instead of flocking to Mitten's camp, the Republican voters are deluding themselves into believing McCain's "Straight Talk Express" because they may want to go back and live in the early 9/11 days when Bush was riding high in the 90-plus percent approval rating.
