Did you hear that there's a political primary in Illinois tonight, even though Mitt Romney has pretty much mathematically locked up the nomination? This is a thing you will want to type about! Illinois is a fascinating state: There's a big city and then some wingnuts out in the countryside, just as there in every other goddamn state. Mitt Romney could win, or Rick Santorum could! Or Newt! (Newt Gingrich is a politician from the 80s and 90s who is now running for president.) Here is your open thread; please monitor it for communists or racists, like
I hate to inform you, <a href="http:\/\/www.theliberaloc.com\/2012\/03\/04\/commie-girl-is-the-new-wonkette\/" target="_blank">the new boss lady</a> also has mega-knockers.
It&#039;s a sad day for terrible journalism...

Don&#039;t forget...Obama got 70% of the vote there in the 2004 Senate race running against a guy who sounded like a cross between Santorum and Gingrich, and 62% in 2008 against a guy who sounded like a cross between George Patton and Mr. Magoo.
Lincoln was so tall, when it rained he only got wet from the shoulders down. Lincoln was so tall, he would go duck hunting with a rake. Lincoln was so tall, he once did a back-flip and kicked God in the face. Lincoln was so tall, he couldn&#039;t wear his hat at night because it might get knocked off by the moon.
I watched the Frontline show and feel the science is valid that vaccines are not the cause (or the sole cause) of neurological diseases. A good friend had a son who was diagnosed with ADD and believes wholeheartedly it was the thimerosal that caused it. Frontline presented reports from Scandinavian countries, Great Britain and other countries that have superb epidemiological studies that dispute any links. And Japan changed their protocols to include less vaccinations but had an even higher percentage of disease. Several of the parents interviewed who believed in a causal relationship mentioned that lay people now have resources to question and dispute the medical establishment. As we have seen in politics, however, that doesn&#039;t lead to logical decision making.
BTW, thought of you as I was planting fruit trees this past week!
Looking at <a href="http:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/2012\/president\/republican_delegate_count.html" target="_blank">the schedule</a>, I don&#039;t see a single winner-take-all primary Santorum will probably win, either. The only way we&#039;re still looking at a brokered convention is if Mitt gets destroyed in Texas and gets hardly any delegates, and even then he&#039;ll have somewhere in the neighborhood of 1100.
At the rate Newt&#039;s going, by April 24th it will be mathematically impossible for him to win the nomination. The last 3 biggest primaries (NJ, California, and Utah) are winner-take-all, and are all states Romney can easily win. The last biggest primary Newt has any prayer of winning, Texas, is proportional, so even if Romney loses, he&#039;ll probably still pick up a sizable share of its 155 delegates.
Given that math, I wonder what <a href="http:\/\/i1115.photobucket.com\/albums\/k551\/denniverse\/newt-derp.jpg" target="_blank">rationale Newt is going to give</a> for staying in until Tampa.
She should let us know in advanced next time. :(

I&#039;m sure there was a perfectly good reason you learned how to do that.
I just can&#039;t imagine what it was.

About the same as it will be there in November.
