For a couple of months, I'd been guiltily telling myself that I was eventually going to have to look up who Presidential candidate Jim Gilmore was and what party he belonged to. But, today, we learned that he is withdrawing from the race, so I now don't have to.

Second: You can make a tax deductible contribution via VDARE by clicking here. (Paypal and credit cards accepted, including recurring "subscription" donations.) UPDATE: Don't try this at the moment.
Third: send money via the Paypal-like Google Wallet to my Gmail address (that's isteveslrATgmail.com -- replace the AT with a @). (Non-tax deductible.)
Here's the Google Wallet FAQ. From it: "You will need to have (or sign up for) Google Wallet to send or receive money. If you have ever purchased anything on Google Play, then you most likely already have a Google Wallet. If you do not yet have a Google Wallet, don’t worry, the process is simple: go to wallet.google.com and follow the steps." You probably already have a Google ID and password, which Google Wallet uses, so signing up Wallet is pretty painless.
You can put money into your Google Wallet Balance from your bank account and send it with no service fee.
Or you can send money via credit card (Visa, MasterCard, AmEx, Discover) with the industry-standard 2.9% fee. (You don't need to put money into your Google Wallet Balance to do this.)
Google Wallet works from both a website and a smartphone app (Android and iPhone -- the Google Wallet app is currently available only in the U.S., but the Google Wallet website can be used in 160 countries).
Or, once you sign up with Google Wallet, you can simply send money via credit card, bank transfer, or Wallet Balance as an attachment from Google's free Gmail email service. Here's how to do it.

Fourth: if you have a Wells Fargo bank account, you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Wells Fargo SurePay. Just tell WF SurePay to send the money to my ancient AOL email address steveslrATaol.com -- replace the AT with the usual @). (Non-tax deductible.)
Fifth: if you have a Chase bank account (or, theoretically,other bank accounts), you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Chase QuickPay (FAQ). Just tell Chase QuickPay to send the money to my ancient AOL email address (steveslrATaol.com -- replace the AT with the usual @). If Chase asks for the name on my account, it's Steven Sailer with an n at the end of Steven. (Non-tax deductible.)

Time to reprise Lord Keynes--"In the long run, we are all dead."
Do you think Gilmore's started a trend? Obviously, candidates were gunna have to start bailing at some point, but I wonder if it may have been a matter of pride for some who didn't want to be known as the first candidate to fold.
If the 7 Republican candidates who are polling at 1% or so - Gilmore, Tancredo, Hunter, Paul, Tommy Thompson, Huckabee, Brownback - get out, I think a lot more people would focus on the remaining 4 or 5, and the process would get more intense. It would be interesting to see if anyone managed to come out with a significant lead. And 6 months before the first primary, it may leave enough time for others to get in.
One wouldn't know that Chris Dodd and Joe Biden, relatively powerful longterm members of the SENATE are even in this race.
I really despise the media. They have "anointed" Hillary and Obama as the Democratic frontrunners to the utter exclusion of the other candidates. The only reason Edwards gets any play is that he was the vice pres. nominee last time out and he has a ton of dough.
And the time you've saved was misspent writing this blog entry and moderating its comment's section.
Did you hear of the (unknowingly miked) conversation betwixt Hillary and Johnny Edwards? He suggested the lesser candidiates get out so the "big boys" could get serious. When they were interrupted by the smiling Denny Kucinich,as he walked away Hillary said something to Edwards like,"Lets talk..." :0
Now that's funny....
Leave it on the shelf long enough and it no longer has to be done....
I'll remember that next time I feel guilty for procrastinating...
I'll say I learned it at isteve...
These elites are beginning to make me angry.
