Stinky The Clown

Take a step back and observe . . . . .

. . . . . . how very, very sad is the 2012 edition of the repubican slate of presidential hopefuls.

Before things really got started, there was the Clown Of The Week Game, a twisted repubican version of Whack-A-Mole. Up and quickly down were the real clowns like Perry, Bachman, and Cain. The painfully ordinary John Huntsman was just too normal for the rabid Base.

Ron Paul is a special case. His space ship is on a 90 minute orbit so, mercifully, we only have to experience him in very limited spurts.

After the race started, and Mitt wasn't quite "It", Lizard Gringrich popped up and was popular. Then not so much. How long since you've even heard the name Callista?

Soon enough, Mitt was back. Then not so much.

Now it is Foamy SmegmaMan.

Really?

Rick Sanatorium? The guy that the underwhelming personality of Bob Casey beat by . . . . what? . . . . fifteen points?

Face it Freddie, the repubicans hate every choice they have. I still think Dog On Car will beat out Man on Dog, but Man Oh Man, it sure is a hoot to watch when "Someone Else" is the favorite amongst the knuckle dragging cognoscenti.

underneath it all, I'm truly dismayed and scared that there are people out there who think this way and that there are even more people who agree with them.
