Joe Cunningham, the big cheese at No Labels, those folks who are all about bringing in a third-party to shake things up, –spilled the beans on Fox News that they’ve got their eyes on Republican Nikki Haley for their third-party ticket this November. No Labels is as disingenuous as The Lincoln Project without the pedophilia, and they seem more organized.
Nikki Haley, former UN Ambassador and current bearer of the “I’m still here, folks!” flag in the Republican race, might just be the wildcard they’re looking for to screw the Republican Party, in particular, Trump.
Cunningham was all, “We’re looking for great quality people, folks that have broad appeal to independents, Democrats, and Republicans. And, yeah, I mean, Nikki Haley is somebody we’d definitely be interested in.” Talk about casting a wide net! But hey, in a world where everyone’s looking for a hero, No Labels is out here trying to find theirs in the political equivalent of a crowded bar on a Saturday night.
Now, before you get too excited, No Labels has only managed to secure a spot on the ballot in 16 states. But Cunningham is the eternal optimist, hoping they’ll hit the jackpot and get access to all 50 states. He said, “The truth is we’re talking to a lot of spectacular people right now, and we’re not ready to unveil those folks just yet.” It sounds a bit like the lead-up to a season finale, doesn’t it?
2023 was a big year for No Labels, as they saw their chance to shine brighter than my Aunt Betty’s Christmas lights. With Joe Biden and Donald Trump gearing up for a rematch that has some folks yawning and others yelling, No Labels is positioning itself as the cool, new option on the block – for those feeling a bit meh about the whole thing.
I think they’re wrong about that, as I believe most people have already made up their mind about who they are voting for. And it is a clear choice. You can either vote for the communists to stay in power and continue to destroy our country, or you can vote for Trump to restore some sanity and save the republic.

If they’re unhappy with the presumptive nominees, which, you know, it appears it’s going to be Trump versus Biden right now, but we don’t know,”
And Nikki Haley? Well, she’s still in the running, refusing to throw in the towel, even though the towel is a bit torn with bloodstains on it from multiple primary losses . “Nikki Haley, she’s remaining in the race. You can’t count her out completely. And hats off to her for staying in it and for sticking with it,” Cunningham said. It’s the kind of perseverance that makes you want to stand up and salute, or at least give a polite golf clap.
But hold your horses before you start picturing Nikki Haley with a No Labels sash. Her campaign spokesperson was quick to throw cold water on the whole idea, stating, “Nikki has no interest in No Labels. She’s perfectly happy with the Republican label.” That’s like saying, “Thanks, but no thanks, I’m good with the brand I’ve got.”
However, despite calling South Carolina her home turf, Nikki Haley found herself 20 points behind Trump in the primary there. Ouch! That’s got to sting, but she’s vowed to keep on trucking at least until Super Tuesday. However, in a move that’s as cold as my ex-wife’s heart, Americans for Prosperity Action, a group with Koch money behind it, decided to stop funding her campaign following that loss.
So, what’s the moral of this political soap opera? In the world of politics, it’s always about what’s next, who’s up, who’s down, and who’s willing to dance with a new partner. For Nikki Haley and No Labels, it seems like this dance might not happen, but in the grand tradition of politics, never say never. After all, stranger things have happened, and I’ve got about 20 years of writing stories to prove it!
