I love Steve Bullock. He was my preferred candidate until the #PeteFever hit me, but I think now...it's too late. I'd rather see him run for Senate. I'll still chip in a few bucks if he runs, but I just don't think he should run.

would be cool if Amash switched parties before leaving his Congressional post so we could have a Libertarian member of Congress just for history's sake

Amash wouldn't have come out in favor of impeachment if he wasn't strongly considering a run.

Amash has quit the GOP:

These non-committal answers are stupid and lame. Just say you're waiting until you know you can't win re-election in your district and then you'll run for President.

Ami Horowitz appears to have dropped out of the Democratic race, although there has been no news coverage thereof. 

Because he’s a dork who was never serious about running for President

Kasich asked at about the 9:25 mark here:

if there's any chance that he'll decide to run for president this year.  His answer is "Only if I have a chance to win."

At this point, he is attention whoring. He doesn't want to run, he just wants attention so he can run in 2024.

Then he's running just to steal votes from Biden on Super Tuesday. Amazing.

Part of me is okay with these moderate bootlickers getting in and stealing as many votes from Biden as possible.

Part of me doesn't like the optics of the party being in such disarray that we still have candidates jumping in a few months before Iowa.

Gotta love that grift.

Amash:

Justin Amash, a former Republican-turned independent congressman from Michigan, said Wednesday that he stopped actively campaigning for his House seat in mid-February as he has been considering running for president as a libertarian.

"He has been discussing the potential campaign with his family, his friends, his team, and others, and a decision can be expected soon," Amash's campaign said in a statement.

PLEASE NO

My question is this: do Amash and Ventura genuinely not realize that Liberatarian and Green primaries have been going on for months without them?

They're more high profile than any of the other dorks running, so they feel entitled to be coronated.

All 4 of his potential supporters must be devastated.
