Ummmm, because he was WORKING in Texas?
Where are any of these guys from.
Mitt Romney was born in Utah, moved to Michigan, and then Massachusetts.
Barack Obama was born in Kenya.....err Hawaii... yeah, Hawaiii, and then moved to Illinois after having gone to college in New York.
(Just kidding on the Kenya thing. I know how upset that gets you!)
Funny, I know someone who is working in Kentucky but claims to live in Tennessee....I guess that's illegal?
"Where are any of these guys?" from IS EXACTLY MY POINT.
Cecille seems to think this is a roadblock to the Gingrich/Cain ticket.
That is nonsense. After all, just look at Cheney. He got around it. I'm sure that Cain can do the same. As I said, this is the single thing Cheney did that doesn't bother me in the slightest. As the court's decision demonstrated, this isn't that big a deal.
Whoever said any of this was illegal, moron? What Hillary did was legal. It just wasn't particularly ethical or respectable.
Lots of people maintain a legal residence in one state, but spend time in another for various purposes. College students, for example. Most out-of-state students have their actual legal residences in the states they came from, but live 9-10 months out of the year in the state where they attend school. Congressmen usually spend more time in DC and traveling than they do in their home states. Snowbirds generally live six months of the year (summer) in their home states, and six months of the year (winter) in the warm state of their choice. All of which, while not the norm, is perfectly legal.
However, neither Newt Gingrich nor Herman Cain (who, by the way, hasn't lived in Tennessee since he was a young child; he was actually raised in Atlanta, GA) falls into this category, neither having ever maintained a second residence anywhere. And because they, unlike Saint Hillary the Carpetbagger, are ethical men, it is unlikely that either of them would employ the disreputable - but technically legal - ruse of suddenly moving before the election. If they did, I would respect them as little as I do Hillary.
