So does this conclude Herman’s 15 seconds of fame?
Go Away.
Just more attention-grabbing while saying very little. Oh,and enough of the rhyming, Herman.
Just go tend to your wife and leave us alone.
Just tell the press, “I owe you NOTHING!”
“I will act on my own timetable and your insistence that I provide ‘hot’, ‘warm’, or ‘cold’, assessments of your latest guess is irrelevant!”
He did say a while ago that he’d make an “unconventional endorsement” before the SC primary, so I suppose he felt an obligation to come out with something.
Since I can’t imagine that any candidate would actually adopt a withdrawn candidate’s plan lock, stock, and barrel, I’d say this amounts to a nonendorsement.
I suspect this is Herman’s way of trying to have his cake and eat it too. He’ll use this as a vehicle for endorsing Romney without actually coming out and saying it. By doing that, he hopes to avoid trouble with the Tea Party folks who, in all honesty, have probably abandoned him already.
If anyone brings up Romney’s questionable past, he’ll turn around and say “We’re trying to advance an agenda of real reform. What, do you want me to endorse Barack Obama?”
"We need a Solutions Revolution. We canât just think outside the box, as the saying goes. We must redesign the box and fill the box with what the people want, not what the political class and the media class want. We want our power back."M.T. "Buzz" Words gets the endorsement!
Thanks, Herman.
The ride, while it lasted, was fun... I donated to your campaign, even.
Because I had hope.
And the hope for a conservative President is all but gone.. possibly for all time.
So... please tend to your family now, Herman.
We’re going to have to make it without you.
At the present time, they need you most.
Biggest letdown Since Jayne Mansfield took off her top.
I believe Herman stated he would make this announcement at the “Southern Republican Leadership Conference”. So check the date on that event.
My point is that he, or somebody, needs to remind the media that it is NOT the arbiter of what will be said or when.
The media has only 2 interests:
1- “Increase my ratings”
2- “Destroy any and everything positive in our culture”
Get over yourself Herman.
And, When Whorealdo opened Capone's vault.
This is starting to look like the death of Rasputin.
Or the old guy on the Monty Python death wagon.
Just. Go. Away, Herman
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Gee you guys are hard on Herman. He is relevant, no, not as the perceived anti-obama conservative outsider but as a man with keen insight. Whoa! Wait a damn minute before you blow that fuse! When he pats your guy on the back or otherwise makes an impact on your candidate he will again be relevant in your eyes. Herman has certainly done more for the cause than any keyboard punching constitutional lawyer wannbe here at Freep.
Yes I could see through Herman’s campaign early on and chose to voice that. In over his head, period. Now that the inevitable has come to pass, his dropping out, why is he such a target? I personally like the man. Is he to sit by and watch now. Give me a break.
People spent a lot of time, and sent in a lot of money, for Cain. They invested a lot of effort into defending him against all the various charges and attacks, explaining how his lack of experience was a good thing, how experience was a bad thing, and how campaign mistakes were endearing rather than disqualifying.
It took a lot out of them, including some self-respect, but they would sacrifice anything for the “Pizza Man”, because he understood the fight and was in it to win it.
Except then he quit on them. I think they have some right to their anger and frustration.
No hugs for Herman, today, eh?
You’re a funny guy, with your pretend mind-reading and all...
No Hunton Peck.He let me down.Unless he whips out some lawsuits he is on my no hug list.
