Do you ever find yourself asking...

who Ross "The Boss" Perot would endorse in the 2008 Presidential election?

If you are like me, your nights are one long series of soul-torturing moments, characterized by insomnia, cold sweat, and repetitive praying for the peace of mind that only death's sweet, sweet release can bring.

Not from pondering the above question, though. But since Suzanne Sena stopped doing the FOX overnight newsbreaks, I just really hate late night TV.
Except for Red Eye, of course.

But if you do, in fact, occasionally worry about who has earned Ross Perot's support. I'm here to tell you.

Ross Perot hates John McCain. Who does that benefit? Mitt Romney, of course.

Perot's deep thoughts after the jump:

Perot on McCain:

Perot doesn't remember it that way. "After he came home, he walked with a limp, she [Carol McCain] walked with a limp. So he threw her over for a poster girl with big money from Arizona [Cindy McCain, his current wife] and the rest is history."

Perot's real problem with McCain is that he believes the senator hushed up evidence that live POWs were left behind in Vietnam and even transferred to the Soviet Union for human experimentation, a charge Perot says he heard from a senior Vietnamese official in the 1980s. "There's evidence, evidence, evidence," Perot claims. "McCain was adamant about shutting down anything to do with recovering POWs."

Perot on Romney:

Perot says he intends to vote for Mitt Romney in the Texas Republican primary on March 4, citing Romney's experience in business and his family values. "When I went to the Naval Academy and met my first Mormons I asked why so many were excellent officers," Perot recalls. "I learned it was because of their strong family unit."

Perot on Obama:

When I asked about Barack Obama, Perot said he admired his eloquence but thought it "a little odd that we would be less concerned about his background than being a Mormon." Perot was pleasantly surprised when I told him that Obama was a Christian, not a Muslim, and relieved when I informed him that the e-mail Perot (and untold others) received about Obama not respecting the Pledge of Allegiance was a fraud.

Perot on Hillary:

Perot isn't a Hillary hater, but he's not a fan either, relating the bumper sticker he received that reads: "Monica Lewinsky's Ex-Boyfriend's Wife for President."

So there you have it. Perot has spoken. All you "volunteers" who made up that 19% now have your marching orders.

Or not. I don't really care. I just like posting articles that trash McCain.
