Doug Hoffman, the wingnut geek who forced the Republican out of New York’s 23rd congressional district special election but then lost that election to the Democrat and then proceeded to concede and later unconcede, finally admitted defeat (again) today, which caused the spontaneous pregnancy of Sarah Palin (again) and the immediate sale of 1 gazillion copies of Palin’s book, I’m Awesome.

Louisiana sex creep David “Diaperman” Vitter is known for one thing, and one thing only: Hiring hookers and then making those hookers put adult diapers on him, so he can poop in the diapers, for sex kicks. He has been caught employing prostitutes at least twice, in New Orleans and in Washington DC — his number found in the client phone records of the since-suicided “DC Madam,” in the latter case. He is a gross scumbag and a human joke, and guess where serious Congressional Journalistic Institution Roll Call found him fondling ladies’ lingerie and looking “a bit lost,” because he was about to spurt/poop?

Some 400 years ago the Pilgrims and Indians dined together to celebrate a bountiful harvest, and then the nice Pilgrims gave the Indians smallpox blankets and killed just about all of them. To commemorate this glorious occurrence in our nation’s history, we get the Thanksgiving holiday, and if you’re sticking around and braving a visit from your family, don’t worry, there will be plenty of things to do in the District.

This James Perry person is running for mayor of New Orleans, the most desirable position in the country. Here is his commercial, #1 effective political video on teevee. You’ll notice every other word has been artfully bleeped out, because of cursing! James Perry is also an Eagle Scout. [The Awl]

Hey meet the winner of the Washington Post’s pundit match: “Kevin”! He appears to be nothing more than a composite of all preexisting Washington Post op-ed writers, yet somehow even whiter. Synergy! [Washington Post]

How do you baffle a not-too-smart nation of people who aren’t really much into book-learnin’? Have competing publishers release similarly-titled books about popular idiot Sarah Palin! Not even counting the “I’m buying this only for ironic reasons” crowd in Brooklyn and Silver Lake, there is apparently total chaos in bookstores, as people who’ve only previously visited bible shops in the strip mall out by the edge of town are now pouring into the Borders and B&N or even trying their hand at “the Amazon,” with pitiable results.

Oh man this truther-birther nut pulled a fast one and you need to know about it! During the 2007-2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama’s web robots made this sort of community-Faceybook deal called “My Barack Obama,” so the liberals could hold sex parties in their gentrified-neighborhood townhouses and it would be “for Obama.” Well: That website is apparently still online, so look what this sneaky fellow went and did to it, on his personal “My Barack Obama” web page. Pwned? MORE »

The RNC is considering making all Republican politicians take a ten-question Ronald Reagan-themed purity test! According to Daily Intel, “If someone disagrees with three or more of the policies, the resolution’s supporters want to withhold party money and endorsement. The 80 percent threshold comes from a famous Reagan quote: ‘The person who agrees with you 80 percent of the time is a friend and an ally — not a 20 percent traitor.’” Valid, but: Couldn’t Michael Steele have also, in theory, said those words in that order? So it’s unfair to call it a “Reagan” quote when, technically speaking, it’s potentially a Michael Steele quote. See, here’s your credit baby! Anyway, let’s play Michael Steele’s new politics quiz game, right now! MORE »

Today Sarah Palin is visiting the Villages, which, according to the Internet’s famous Talking Points Memo, “is a heavily Republican community that is a must-stop for campaigning politicians in a key battleground state. The Villages is in central Florida about 60 miles northwest of Orlando.” So Presidential speculation, etc. etc.! Your Wonkette had never even heard of the Villages or the crucial Republican Villages People, which is why Editor Jim Newell suggested we watch this commercial. So, this is what Sarah Palin is doing today! Levi Johnston wins this round by default. [YouTube, TPM]

Whenever absolutely anything goes wrong, immediately fire the nearest communications director. This is a law, in our politics. It would follow, then, that Michael Steele would have already gone through all the communications directors on Earth, multiple times. Well! This recent RNC communications director, Trevor Francis, had only been at his job since March but lasted til yesterday, when Steele fired him to death because Steele was sad he, Michael Steele, did not receive “enough credit for the GOP’s electoral success earlier this month.” MORE »
