Yawn!!

Bush gets support from the Mormons........... Says it all!!

What Ever Happened 2

Seperation of Chruch and State?

With multitudes turning out in droves to register Democratic and hear Obama speak (75,000 recently) McBush is going to need more than money.

Disenfanchised Republican

Unless Romney is his running mate, I am voting for the 'conservative' Obama (as long as he doesn't connect to Hillary). I haven't forgotten the divisive primary and how disenfranchised the Republican party made me feel because of Mccain.

Indiana

Unless Romney is put on the ticket, I will write him in!!!! Obama is NOT conservative. He has the most liberal voting record in the Senate!!! Go Romney... I hope McCain is that smart, but I have my doubts!

Republicans are in a world of hurt. Time for a strong independent to emerge like Perot in '92.

Pac 10 Guy

I will not attend ANY fundraiser that ultimately gives the proceeds to McCain. McCain will NEVER put Mitt on the ticket with him... it's the logical move, but won't happen.

I'll vote for Bob Barr

No Choices

There is not a decent ccandidate running in either party. That being said Obama scares me more than McCain. There is no way you could rationally claim that he is not a socialist. It is blatantly obvious that he is. His ideas are way way scary.

I'm goint to write someone in because I can not vote for any of the currant canidates with a clear conscience

I can't imagine anyone paying 70k per couple to have dinner with George Bush. Sounds like some people have too much money, and too little sense.

You guys....

....really had me going for awhile. That is, of course, until I read "strong independent like Perot".

Now, I'm wiping my coffee off my monitor.

"Strong Independent" = total nutjob

Loved Perot's "Why am I here?" VP running mate, too!

That's the November Rethuglican Ticket.

Oh, goody!

One incompetent, unqualified, amoral, unconscionable boob is coming to Utah to raise money for another unqualified, amoral, unconscionable boob (and disrupting the entire city in the process). We do NOT need this.

I'm not crazy about him and a few of his stances but Ron Paul seems to me to be the only choice left. If Romney goes on the ticket, which I doubt he will, then I'll consider McCain with the hope that he'll listen to Romney who has the best chance to do something about our economic mess. Otherwise..... Ron Paul.

It is clear that the Republicans are having a tough time raising money because the venues are always downsized. It should be a wake up call that Republican leadership has let the country down and that we need to do a better job of getting consistent conservative republicans on the ticket. This year is an absolute farce for the whole country.

Are the taxpayors footing the bill for this? I hope not, but am not holding my breath.

Obama's money has come from millions of individuals who give small amounts. Obama's raised far more than McCain, and Obama isn't even the Dem nominee yet. McCain's money comes from a few individuals who pay 70k per couple. That's enough to show anyone the difference in the candidates, and make the GOP very, very nervous.

I'll Bet

If the Republican party got David Archuletta and charged $100.00 a ticket for dinner they would make a lot more and we wouldn't have to have the embarrasment known as Bush here. At least the President is good for something besides a laugh, he's good at overcharging for his company. Too bad we get stuck footing the bill for his being here. I mean is the Republican party going to pay for the fuel and added security? I doubt it, it'll be up to us to pay for it all. Now I'm REALLLLLY depresed.

Real Big Question

I would like to ask a question to wealthy conservatives, but to know them is too realize that there are no honest and truthful wealthy conservative republicans. But here goes. How do you like the direction of our country now, with the economy tanking, the ridiculous cost of the BUSH war, the energy mess, the financial fiasco, immigration mess ect? Are you ready for four or eight more years of Bush politics? I can just imagine your responses. Thank God Bush is staying out of our sight in this visit to empty the wallets of the blind. I personally have seen way to much of this man, and can't wait for the next 7 months to pass. The only thing I want to see is Air Force One departing the SLC airport.

We're in an economic mess because we're in Iraq...Romney being VP on Bush-Lite's ticket isn't going to fix the economy.
I'm sure Shrub is wondering why the sheep in this state aren't even more blindly in support of his immoral agenda. I'm sure Thomas S. and the crew will smile, shake his hand and tell him what a great job he's doing. If they had any guts they'd call him on the carpet for his lies and for instigating a war that has cost the lives of more than 4,000 U.S. troops, plus the untold thousands with life-altering injuries/trauma.
END THE WAR IN IRAQ NOW!

Great Headline

What an insightful headline. Of course he's going to raise a bunch of money! Why else would he attend a fundraiser?
