Romney Elected Pretend President Again

Every year at the Conservative Political Action Conference, flocks of angry young nerds vote on who would make the best president. Every year Mittens "Willard" Romney wins this so-called presidential straw poll, and some years he even runs for "actual" president! He has yet to win, but Republicans' extremely rigid rules of succession dictate that he at least give it another humiliating whirl in 2012 while Bobby Jindal is groomed for greatness in 2016.

Bobby Jindal, Sarah Palin, and the famous obstetrician Dr. Congressman Ron Paul each got an additional 13 or 14 percent of votes. This is probably good news for America, because it suggests that even the most conservative of conservatives aren't so delusional as to think any of these losers stands a real chance of being president any time soon. But this good news for America is, of course, bad news for Comedy.

Palin/Jindal 2012!
