I wouldn’t take this guy too seriously. As of today, 11 states have already passed their deadlines, including a number of battleground states (NC, NM, NV, and FL).

In just over 2 weeks, you can add the battleground states of MI, MO, PA, and WI.

At that point 26 deadlines will have passed.

The question for me is WHY is Kristol so Desperate for a third party candidate?

There is definitely something going on here.

Ann Romney and oldest son Tagg are going to have to stage an intervention. Have a private family meeting and tell him :”Mitt, let’s all face the truth. You are not going to be President this election, next election or ANY election. Mitt, you will NEVER be president of the United States.

But it does not matter to us at all, isn’t that right, Tagg? It doesn’t matter to your family or even to the Mormon Church. Now, let’s find you a new less expensive, less humiliating hobby. How do you feel about gardening?”

Fine. Romney’s wealthy, let him self-fund it.

Sasse thinks he’s got all the answers, let him resign his Senate seat and go for it.

Typical politicians, all talk...

I bet Kristol was not even for Sasse in the 2014 primary, as most conservatives very much WERE. Looks like we got sassed badly on Sasse

Wasn’t Kristol originally a “Dan Quayle acolyte”, or am I confused?

“The Cheap Labor Express is sure getting their money’s worth out of Billy boy”

I don't even think it's about cheap labor anymore. This whole #neverTrump ‘movement’ is much more sinister.

These elitist aholes are scared sh!tless that some horrible truths will be outed when Trump is elected.

IMO, they have a good reason to be scared. A large majority of them will be exposed as TRAITORS. Covering for the O’muslim regime and the destruction of America

Commit him before he goes off the rails...

Kristol is just pissed because no one listens to him, or gives a flying f*** what he thinks-he and the rest of the GOPe really believed they could tell us Jeb Bush was the nominee and we’d accept-but the 3d time was not the charm-lucky for us, bad for them...

There's a lot of 'token' repubs in the media. Their careers are finished that's for sure.

Sasse was another one of the "outsiders" that benefitted greatly from Glenn Beck still having an audience at the time.

Only one question - why are they doing this?

Don Quixote tilting at windmills, phantom enemies that exist only in his mind. All very valiant and brave, but stoopid as hell.

There is only one viable #NeverHillary out there. And it ain’t Romney.

Kristol is seriously mentally ill. He needs a car battery circuit completed across his ears.

Kristol very few people, if anyone, gives a damn about you or your ideas. You are a nobody these days-so shut up.

I’m not sure what your point is other than to confirm what I said about it being too late.

I would love to see Kristol led away in a straitjacket.

It’s Trump and Pence.

Get on board or we leave you at the station.
