I'm telling ya, I was talking to the missus and her cuz while Peggington was on the teevee machine this morning, and I glanced over and quickly became convinced that she'd spent all the time from the result becoming apparent Tuesday night and her appearance on FTN drowning her sorrows in several bottles of gin. I watched <em>Flight</em> last night, so I also figured she probably did a couple of lines of coke to get herself up enough for the cameras.

Normally it means "all potted up on weed." but since Romney is a Mormon and don't spark up a j, in this context it means "sociopathic fugue state."

I'm trying, but I can't remember a damn thing the man ever said. Either I'm drunk on euphoria and snarkenfreude or all of his word-sets cancelled each other out.
