>....he still has the one showbiz contract that *has* to run out (September) before he can declare without screwing the people he used to work with.<
Then he has no business being included in polls, and going out there talking himself up to the people until he does declare. Face it, he’s been running all year, exempt from the rules other candidates must follow. It doesn’t set well.
LOL You'll be fine.
If the other candidates were smart, they could have done the same thing. It’s not illegal or unethical.
Geez! Calm down! Ever heard of "keep yer powder dry???"
I don’t know. Before it was supposed to be around the 4th of July, then it was early August. Now it’s Labor Day. I hate to sound bitter, but should we pencil in Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years as announcement dates too? Just in case Labor Day is a “slow time” like August is?
Just put it down to my being “irrationally ticked off”. IF he runs, I’ll probably get over it. In the mean time, Romney is looking better and better.
Yeah, but that’s like signaling the Titanic to “watch out for that iceberg!”. In other words, it’s too late.
Yeah...mebbe...our election cycle is WAAAAY too long.
Yeah, you’re probably right. Maybe I better start taking my meds again just in case. :)
What I think Fred is doing is to wait and see what people say before he runs for POTUS.Therefore his SandBags are there before the Flood!!!!!.....Sand-Baging works every time it is used.....
Okay. That's it. You're a troll.
Many reasonable people have explained that nobody gives a rat's a$$ about elections in August.
Get a clue. Come back in 2 months and talk to us.
He's IN. Don't you get it?
This coy act is extremely old and annoying.
There are no games being played here. Reports are that he's going to announce shortly after Labor Day.
I was a Fred! guy
No, you were never a Fredhead, because real Fredheads are confident that Fred is going to officially declare soon.
but I’m sick of this. This isn’t a game, Mr. Thompson. Run or get the hell out of the way.
WAAA! WAAA!
It isn’t a cycle, it’s a marathon.
But, if you think about it, if you can’t manage a campaign for a couple of years how are you going to manage the White House, and the country, for 4 years?
As xcamel stated that you may be suffering from pre-mature ejaculation syndrome (PE) not to be confused with Erectile (sp, never had it and do not know how to spell it) Disfunction (ED).
Anyway, check into some staying power RX or listening to Air Supply.
No, the troll is Gitmo Sailor—nothing but a disruptor.
We don't want him to be Reagan. We just want him to be himself.
....ummmm....get out of the way of WHAT?????????
October Surprise!!!!!!!!...................
Clara Lou...please don’t tell me what to say.
Settle down, Ron. After Labor Day is when people start paying attention in a campaign that has already gone on way too long.
He’s in? Well, at least I’m not the only one who missed the announcement. Seems like everyone but you did too.
I was never a Fredhead? Well, I didn’t exactly say I was. Especially if it means that Fredheads all have to think the same thing. No, not all Fredheads were ‘confident’ he was going to run. They ‘hoped’ fervently that he would, however.
I will agree with you on the “WAAA! WAAA!” part, however.
