At its heart, Pearls Before Swine is the comic strip tale of two friends: an arrogant Rat who thinks he knows it all and a slow-witted Pig who doesn't know any better. Together, this pair offers caustic commentary on humanity's quest for the unattainable. Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams says that Pearls is "one of the few comics that make me laugh out loud." The strip has twice won the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben division award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip – in 2003 and in 2006.

Wait, so if he hasn’t dropped out yet but isn’t the nominee…

Jon Huntsman . . . one of the last Republicans not teleported to Planet Wingnut.
In the old days he would have been someone who staked out (what was then) a far-right position . . . who agreed that the facts are the facts, but advocated conservative policies to address them. Someone principled, but pragmatic, and willing to compromise when necessary for the good of the country.
Too bad that Republican party is dead . . .

Progressive Dems and moderate Repubs, both becoming extinct.

I wish Jon Huntsman had beaten the rest of the Republican nominees!

American politics is getting very scary for the rest of world to watch and observe. We can all only hope that common sense and goodwill will prevail for all our sakes!

He was a wannabe, Wallaby.

And he still fails to plan sufficiently. Though, to be fair, nobody predicted the GOP race would be this long and stupid.
It seems to me that the GOP is too fractured to produce a nominee that can actually win the election. After this presidential election, the Republican party will have a minor collapse. They’ll either reform as much more moderate like the Democrats did in the late 80’s/early 90’s, or they’ll split and become two different parties: the Republican Party and the Tea Party.

Most of the candidates are crocks…

I’m kind of hoping for the split myself. Not all GOP are bad, but I can NOT see myself ever voting for the TP.

RL-Pastis deserves some respect for foreseeing things three months ahead in the turbulent world of politics as well as he did! Cartoon-Pastis should give Rat a slap upside the head for his insult! And consider a dinner of grilled croc-on-a-stick (I hear it tastes like chicken…).

Ant Republican would be far better (Who ever he is) would be far better than what we have in office now. A B B O

Hillbillyman-“Ant Republican”- Is this a new Pearls character waiting in the wings? I’ll bet his brain is larger than the other candidates.
