Are you sad because the exciting contest over which angry white fellow would take on Barack Obama in November is now over, and extra sad because the winner was the dude who was super awkward and boring, and not even super awkward and boring in kind of a fun way? Do you hold out high hopes that at least we'll have some amusing drama when Romney has to make a "daring" VP pick who will connect with real Americans and also be a hateful moron? WELL YOU ARE WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA. You probably enjoy guffawing and masturbating while watching those shows about the all the Kardashian ladies; meanwhile, the old people who run the Republican Party spend their time sipping red wine and watching communist PBS and plotting how to foist boring loser Rob Portman onto the 2012 ticket.
I wonder why they don't want him to pick Condoleeeeeza Rice. She's smart, attractive, "speaks well," and wouldn't come across as a political calculation at all.
All of &#039;em, Katie. After all, it is the home of the <a href="http:\/\/wonkette.com\/454954\/cops-now-hunting-escaped-zoo-monsters" target="_blank">completely unregulated private zoos which occasionally let some or all of their animals escape</a>.
<i>&quot;many Republicans are urging the campaign to choose someone who will, above all, &ldquo;do no harm.&rdquo; &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a no-brainer,&rdquo; said Terry Holt&quot;</i>
Well there&#039;s your problem right there, Terry: Looking for a no-brainer in the GOP doesn&#039;t narrow down the choices much.
Yeah, I&#039;m sure when Romney aides are already admitting that their economic agenda is the Bush economic agenda, that picking the guy who wrote Bush&#039;s budgets as running mate will &quot;do no harm&quot; because the economy was so fucking wonderful under Bush, amiright?

In fairness to John Major, though, if he hadn&#039;t failed so massively to keep the Pound in the ERM, the British economy might be suffering even worse butthurt now than it already is. And we thought America was the land of opportunity - pretty sure no US Secretary of the Treasury ever quit school after flunking 10th grade math!
Yeah, I actually was going to put a warning about the colour-scheme but forgot. Sorry about that.
Fortunately for me, my parents were wise enough to live abroad for most of the Thatcher years. I had no idea who Keith Joseph was. I did know enough to hate the then-living shit out of Enoch Powell, I hope he&#039;s now perpetually drowning in rivers of blood.
There is nothing like the Repubican Vice-Presidential nomination to catapult someone from obscurity to being our next Spiro Agnew or Dan Quayle or Sarah Palin. Sure, occasionally a Dick Cheney gets the nod and smears torture all over America&#039;s reputation. But the odds are we&#039;ll get someone who provides hours of outrageous snark.
so what we&#039;re saying is the burden of comedy for campaign 2012 is going to fall squarely on joe biden?

Hi Josh! Welcome back. So, will we see <i>Cartoon Violence</i>?
There is nothing like the Repubican Vice-Presidential nomination to catapult someone from obscurity to being our next Spiro Agnew or Dan Quayle or Sarah Palin.
