Or should the thoughtful pick up tickets and THEN stay home?

then go home, burn the tickets in the backyard, and put it in the compost pile.

except his surge is in the wrong direction. An early poll had Christie leading with like 18%, Ryan around 16%, but the noteworthy thing was that Santorum, who possibly had the highest name recognition and has been showing up everywhere lately, was at 5%. Rick knows he is history, just trying to make a few bucks while he can.

...staying home.
Sounds like a plan.
