What are the former GOP Presidential candidates up to?


Well, let's start:
1. Grampa Fred Thompson is looking for acting work and has no desires to be the Veep for McCain.
2. Duncan "Never heard of him" Hunter is retiring this year from Congress.
3. Sam Brownback got his job back at the Senate and has endorsed McCain.
4. Rev. Mike Huckabuck got employment at Fox News.
5. Ron Paul has been re-elected back to Congress, has recently end his Presidential race, will not endorse McCain, and is heading a campaign with his grassroots to dismantle McCain who still endorses Bush's policies.
What about the other candidates?
6. Rudy Giuliani is out panhandling for dough:
Rudy pimping for money to pay his campaign debts.
Trying to beat a federal campaign finance deadline, Rudy Giuliani is making the rounds, offering to appear at fundraisers for Republican candidates facing election this fall -- as long as he gets some of the cash, the
New York Times reported Saturday.
Among those who have received such an offer: Nevada Rep. Jon Porter, who will square off against state Sen. Dina Titus in November. The Times reported that Porter "contacted Mr. Giuliani’s political organization, asking that the former mayor headline a fund-raising event for the congressman. Mr. Giuliani’s aides then asked that Mr. Porter, who had endorsed Mr. Giuliani for president, put together a joint Porter-Giuliani event in Nevada to raise money to pay off his presidential campaign debt, according to a Republican official who was told of the discussions."
Giuliani is seeking to pay off campaign debt after the spectacular collapse of his presidential bid this year. The former New York mayor loaned himself $500,000 and would have to forgive all or part of that if he does not raise the funds by September, when Sen. John McCain officially becomes the Republican nominee, ending the primary cycle.

7. Mitt Romney is begging for a job:

"They'll recognize the significance of this election," Romney said before addressing a Texas Republican Party convention dinner. He said the Republicans must keep the campaign focused on "substance over style."
8. Tom Tancrazy is still status quo. He is still a lunatic fringe:
Tancredo Says “We Are Importing Our Poverty
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Littleton) said immigration, both legal and illegal, is the cause of asignificant part of Colorado’s increase in child poverty.

List of losers. Will one of them be the GOP's choice for VP? Now we must remember that man could be the President as McShame isn't doing well at all in the health department. Hunter has to retire in hopes he's not prosecuted for his crimes. Rudy will have to deal with the fact he was involved in the 9/11 corruption. Now GrandPa Thomson is hoping Hollywood has a part for an old man who has two lines to read for a lot of money. I really can't think of Republican who's part of the GOP that's in this corrupt group. Brokeback aka Brownback is so funny as he would be the first black VP.
