Jim Webb to form a third party that only Mike Castle could love

Filed in National by on October 20, 2015

Eff this guy. Good riddance.

Former U.S. Senator Jim Webb (D-VA) suspended his 2016 campaign for the Democratic nominee for President Tuesday, but didn’t rule out a third party bid.

“I’m stepping aside from the Democratic primary process,” he said. “As of today, I’m not involved in the Democratic primary process.”

Webb spoke at a news conference at the National Press Club in D.C.

“Americans don’t like the extremes in which both parties have moved in recent years and, quite frankly, neither do I,” Webb said.

Webb began his political career as a Republican and served as secretary of the Navy in the Reagan administration.

“We’ll just have to see what happens next,” Webb said at his announcement.

    If Castle could love it, so could Carper and Markell.

    If Jim Webb thinks that the Democratic Party is somehow extreme, then he needs to go find his own spot where he can pretend to be above-it-all. I read someone recently who noted that they expected Jim Webb to leave the Dems and create the Republican party that used to be.

    I hope he does run as an independent.

    The only people who will vote for him are repugs.
