No word from Mrs. Craig?
I guess I’m a democratic whore, I hit the easy button at the polls today.
But speaking of turncoats, things are getting juicy within gramp’s campaign:

Looks like Romney’s aides have been tossing the Palin dirt to the media.
Looks like Lori Otter (first lady of Idaho) isn’t a fan of SuperTubers either.
[re=150484]HuskyMescan[/re]: but did you remember to make a separate vote for president? I don’t believe the presidential race is included in the straight party vote.
At least, not in North Carolina.
That tank is getting bigger & bigger. Maybe she just wants someone in office who knows how to spell ‘potato’.
She just doesn’t want to be strangled with the entrails of the last priest, so she’s hedging her bets.
I feel the earth
move
under my feet
I feel the sky come tumblin
tumblin down
Time for some potato vodka. I know it’s Monday, but WTF.
[re=150484]HuskyMescan[/re]: I’d vote for Mittens before Bible Spice any day. At least Mittens has shown he actually has a brain (under that head of superbly coiffed hair).
Shouldn’t the home state of Senator Widestance at least be pink?
THAT is Maverick-y!
The first lady of California gives money to democrats too.
$300 Idaho dollars is real money. You can get a snowmobile racing groupie drunk, plant your seed, and make it all go ‘way with that kind of lucre.
This wasn’t a contribution, but payment to Hopey for “sevices rendered”… wink wink, nudge nudge
[re=150509]Tommy Says Soooo[/re]: $300 in Idaho would literally buy the state of Idaho. But who wants it?
Being Mrs. Butch Otter can’t have been easy for her.
But really, don’t we all? Can’t we at least unite around that?
[re=150484]HuskyMescan[/re]: Weren’t Romney’s staff pretty loose lipped even before they were working for McCain though? This might represent a general tendency towards gossiping rather than any sort of strategy. Or Rove is behind it.
Mittens vs. Caribou Barbie in 2012 is going to be some good shit. Throw the Huckster in there and you’ve got a menage Jeebus can be proud of.
[re=150484]HuskyMescan[/re]: Wow, the battle for the soul of the Republican party has begun already.
Which is shaping up to look like two bums fighting over the last can of hobo beans.
[re=150509]Tommy Says Soooo[/re]: Snowmachine, bitch. They’re (apparently) called snowmachines.
It’s kind of like being a Dallas fan. Everyone wants to be associated with a winner. Politicians are now lining up to ensure that the Big O doesn’t strip all federal funding from their racist states.
[re=150507]Canmon (the Inadequate)[/re]: Gov. AR-Nuld had a great stump speech line about Maria: “I argue politics with my wife all the time. Then I go sleep in the garage.”
We laughed and laughed and laughed.
Because we knew that the only reason Teddy let him marry into the family was because he hoped to bred a Bullet-Proof Kennedy.

Hey, thank you! I’ll be here all week, if Jim N. doesn’t drop the banhammer! Be sure to tip your waitress, and try the veal!
[re=150493]hockeymom[/re]: I checked. I am so paranoid from reading all the angry leftist commie blogs
and stories about polling machines shooting people in the face for voting for darack. Yes, i verified that the Obama/Biden slot was checked, but there were a couple that were not checked because they didn’t have a Democratic candidate (just republican and libertarian).
Good point though.. for those slackers that have not yet voted. Ahem.
[re=150500]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: I hate to say it, but me too. And I hate Mittens.
Gesh. “Breed” for “bred.”
My eyes are burned out from The Lost Weekend.
How long before she is accused of serving up a platter of hot, crispy Traitor-Tots?
“I-Da-Hoe” – Get it?
This is bold. Donating money to a black man in the state with with most white supremicist conclaves? I can hear the slides being worked on a 100,000 assault rifles from here.
On the bright side, aren’t we glad we just gave the banks the bailout money instead of buying the shit securities?

Sorry, tank’s closed.
[re=150493]hockeymom[/re]: I don’t think we had a straight party option in VA. You had to select in each category, presidential electors, senator, Congressional Rep, then confirm (“are you REALLY sure you want to vote for the Muslin? You are not going to be a REAL Virginian if you do…”), THEN cast vote
Potatoes in the bag for Obama!

All right – this was it.
I’d suggest you look eastward for “in the state with the most white supremicist [sic] conclave” – Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Florida, N. Carolina, Virgina.
While in Ohio in graduate school, I was stunned at the number of people who would give me shit for being from Idaho while their bigoted, racist selves failed to recognize themselves and their neighbors for what they were, are, and continue to be.
Although there’s still some folks up in northern Idaho, that white supremacist group is no longer here because they were forced to relocate as they lost their ‘conclave’ in a lawsuit.
