     It's a sham, Planned Parenthood operatives "lost" at least 100 votes for Herman Cain.

With 79 votes he's already guaranteed of outperforming Tom Tancredo in NH. Tongue

Why does Fred Karger say he is a huge fan of Sarah Palin? Whatever the reason totally went over my head.

Because she's a strong, powerful, confident woman, honey!

In all seriousness: Probably b/c she endorsed repealing DADT.

In his defense, Tancredo had already dropped out. Wink

Karger could be one of those candidates who will spend just about all of his time in New Hampshire, make a nice little statement by finishing maybe in the Top 4, then dropping out.

I dearly wish that he could win, but alas...his sexuality has to ruin it.

What is there to him other than said sexuality?  Every description of Fred Karger I've seen has been "Republican gay rights activist."
