He blinked! His true intentions were just revealed to EVERYONE! They are no closer to a deal NOW than they were yesterday when there was an announced "deal in theory." He has proven to be nothing more than an apportunistic, gambling, flailing politician!

1. I'm starting to be embarrassed for him
he's just an empty, rotting shell now.

7. I'm not...
I'm starting to feel Obama pulling away BIG TIME in the polls and I'm happy that the country saw what just happened.

3. He found out they weren't going to cancel the debate
and he was not going to miss that, even if it means putting his Country second.

8. Yup! He thought he'd look like a leader and Obama would "join him" to look
like he, too, wanted to look like he was putting "country first."

5. He's like the chess player who brought out his queen on the second move
And thought he was being all clever until lost it to the opponent's bishop. LOL

14. He couldn't have brought out the queen very far on the second move.
But he's just crazy enough to do it.
