For all you Utah mormons, at this time as you consider what crow dish you will be enjoying this evening, may I recommend Crow Helper?

As I heard this news today, my first thought was "thank goodness - we're done with that".

Guess the constitution isn't quite to it's last thread.

You know, with Romney out, Obama is lookin' pretty good to this Republican.
Especially if McMaverikMcain chooses Huckleberry as his running mate.

Can't be! Mitt quit? He's still in silver place and would make the bestest president ever. We're all gonna do our popcorn dances in the streets of Orem for Mitt. Maybe he'll come here and run for governor (get rid of the boob we've got), or Senator maybe. Mitt quit? Mitt quit? Mitt quit? Grrrrrrrrr.........

Romney should throw his support to Huckabee, the only other true Republican conservative.

Yesterday he was talking about how he was giong to stay in the race until the end. Just another example that Mitt can't make up his mind.

What a class act. I've been skeptical of Romney and his integrity, but if he should go for 2012, he just secured my vote with this action.

So now the race is between three liberals. Great....

I think I will go with Hillary, as I think she can destroy this country faster than Obama or McCain can do it, and I am anxious to see it all come unraveled so people can learn their lesson that freedom is something you earn, not just wait around to be handed to you.

About all one could hope for is to create a super majority of republicans in Congress, and then watch Hillary be totally impotent as they overrun her vetos, and fail to move on any of her ideas. That might be something fun to watch.

Sorry to hear it, Mitt. I've supported you from day one. I only hope that if the Dems win in November, that you will run again in 4 more years.

while I have been undecided about Mitt, I am concerned because I feel as though we are left with nothing but dirty politicians. I hate to say it, but Obama just might be the best choice. I hope that Huckabee gets whatever Mccain promised him.

No. Utah sees a major earthquake every 350 years. Last one? 350 years ago.
