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.

"I'll take a lot of credit for that", "[M]y job is not to worry about those people", "And we kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve", "I'm running for office, for Pete's sake"

Did she actually say "Apart from those points, everything in my blog post of Nov. 5 stands."?

(Can't read. Pay wall.)

It's that West Wing deal, where Alan Alda ended up Sec of State because he was an honourable, intelligent opponent. Oh, that's why it won't work with Romney.

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.
