Title: Webb exits the Democratic presidential primary

Former Virginia senator Jim Webb announced Tuesday afternoon that he would no longer pursue the Democratic presidential nomination, saying that he will instead support in the coming weeks for a possible White House bid as an independent candidate.

"More people in this country call themselves political independents than Republicans or Democrats. I happen to agree with them," Webb told reporters at a news conference at the National Press Club in Washington.

"I am withdrawing from any consideration of being the Democratic Party's nominee for the presidency," he said. “This does not reduce in any way my concerns for the challenges facing the country … or my intentions to remain fully engaged in the debates that are facing us."

During a question-and-answer session with reporters following Tuesday's announcement, Webb said he has yet to decide if he will remain a registered Democrat. Acknowledging the tall odds facing an independent presidential bid, he said he and his team would explore whether there is an opening for him to launch such a candidacy. He said he would spend “the next couple weeks talking with people I have not felt comfortable talking with as a Democratic Party candidate.... I feel much freer now, having cleared the air to do that."

"saying that he will instead support in the coming weeks for a possible White House bid as an independent candidate."

What?? Wasn't he asked by the debate moderator if he would sign a pledge to support the winning candidate? To not run third-party?

Oh, wait. That only applies to Republicans.

Telling more lies or fewer ones?? Hmmmmm...

That's because it is BullBarry. Webb wrote a fictional book that had a child molester character in it.

He has a space telescope being named after him . His legacy is secured.(ok only kidding ...that was another Jim Webb)

He was the best of a bad lot of Dems running . Now all that's left is radical commies and socialists . I'm wondering where he thought his base of support was coming from ? The Dems purges moderates like him in the last decade .

I think this is the second time someone has claimed child porn. I think last time was when Jim was running for national office. I think someone has a bur up their back side called Jim webb.

I think it is more of a case that there are people out there that just get hysterical anytime and everytime child molesting is brought up. Maybe they are people who were molested themselves and that is why it is such an emotional issue for them,or maybe it was just someone they love that was molested?

Either way,they operate purely on an emotional level on this issue,so you will never get them to use reason.

Not that I can really blame them. I was never molested and don't personally know of anyone else that was,but I can surely understand the passion and the anger of those who were. It's just the kind of thing were the words "forgiveness" and "understanding" for the ones who committed this crime will ever be heard.

Not that I am all that forgiving about it,either. IMHO,if you are caught actually having sex with or murdering a child you should die. Period. No other sentence is acceptable. And you should die soon,and in public. Hanging in the open would be good,but a firing squad would also work. NONE of that "take a needle and go peacefully to sleep" nonsense.

And "Yes,I WOULD be perfectly happy and comfortable with either slipping the noose over the head or pulling a trigger."

Makes sense . He was the Navy Sec previously under Reagan.
