8. Gingrich hands down
What he said is not as stupid as what the others have said, but it's clearly an example of how hopelessly stupid he thinks his supporters are, and that is a coloissal example of his stupid arrogance.

"9/11 families and everybody else in America should be furious at this president that he’s walking abound taking credit for, you know, getting Osama bin Laden. He didn’t get Osama bin Laden! …"

17. "Herb" Cain's multi-day memory regeneration regarding Harassment settlements.
He starts out claiming he doesn't recall anything. And then over the next few days, he begins to recount all kinds of details.

Then claims he doesn't recall one of the women, and boom, here's a photo of him with her. "Oh her!"

And then, he points out that he had told his staff about these things months ago when he started his campaign. And they thought it was no big deal.

So the settlements did occur. He recalled them months ago, told his staff ... and then he forgot about them when the media brought it up ... and then re-remembered it, with lots of detail.

29. A new one: "Herb" Cain just said that he would "overturn" the Supreme Court
if they strike down the Defense Of Marriage Act.

Good luck with that, "Herb" ...

33. And during the same debate, Michelle Bachman said....

Saturday evening during the GOP Thanksgiving forum debate Michelle Bachmann said:

"Why is it that the big decisions always get made by the Supreme Court? They’re not the law-makers."


And she said something similar back in September: http://politicalcorrection.org/blog/201109290004
