Even before Wednesday's debate started, Idaho Public Television announced that it would broadcast the event on a 30-second delay in anticipation of rampant cussin'. Brown—who wore his customary leather vest and leather hat, has the presidential seal tattooed on his shoulder, two cigars in his right breast pocket, and is missing several prominent teeth—used his closing argument to wave a signed certificate from a "Masai prophet" that confirmed that he would one day be president of the United States. Brown revealed that he supports gay marriage because as a cab driver in Boise he discovered that gay people "love each other more than I love my motorcycle." His closing argument was blunt: "You have your choice, folks: A cowboy, a curmudgeon, a biker, or a normal guy. Take your pick… We're leaving it up to you

1. It is a car full of clowns......

It would be funny if it weren't so serious.......

We have descended into hell. Not one of these candidates are rowing with two oars in the water.

The more traditional candidates are espousing near-and-dear tea party views on a range of issues. The weirdos are just, well, weird.

But the fact that these two clowns are on the stage to engage in a serious debate about their fitness to serve as governor of one of our 50 states is scary.

17. Same strategy of attention given to the crazy crazy so the just plain crazy look not so bad?

[bulloney]

2. It sounds like the start of a joke.

A cowboy, curmudgeon and a biker walk into a bar...

[longship]

4. And the bartender said, "What is this? Some kind of a joke?" nt

[central scrutinizer]

6. what do you get when...

you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

[FiveGoodMen]

7. .

[longship]

9. I'll take bad jokes for $800, Alex.

[wandy]

11. No, not a joke, more like....................

Say the magic word and the duck will come down and give you you're next Governor.
Then and again you're probably right. Teapublicans, a bad joke at best.

[longship]

3. High art, there. High art!

Those dudes were all high, Art.

[pscot]

5. Harley makes quite a fashion statement

Fingerless gloves are sure to be the next big thing.

[AtheistCrusader]

8. What.

What the hell did I just watch.
Was this an extended Saturday Night Live skit?

[jmowreader]

10. No, you did not

You don't have to suffer the consequences of a Saturday Night Live skit for four years.

[Fred Sanders]

14. I still do not believe the clip highlights were for real. For real? Someone pinch me. When will

the asshat media wake up to the GOP insanity and call them out, otherwise they are complicit in all this.

[kimbutgar]

12. You have to wonder if the people of Idaho will ever realize these people are all crazy and vote

For the Democratic governor. None of them should hold office. Otter is a joke. My hubby have relatives who live in Idaho they used to vote republican but since bush vow to never vote for a rethug because they are crazy people. These 4 clowns are evidence of that. How crazy does a politician have to be considered uneligible by reason of insanity to hold elected office.

[Fred Sanders]

13. The stuff writes itself, why does The Daily Show even need writers anymore?

[Fred Sanders]

15. It IS a clown train and this is the video proof:Actual quotes from the debate:

Harley guy:"I am as politically correct as your proverbial turd in a punch bowl."

"We (Harley guys) are like a magnet to cops, like a Playboy bunny in a miniskirt that gets hit on all the time"'.

Crazy guy in a Nazi hat, "I am not crazy."

Someone with more energy and a better computer needs to do a complete list, it would be comedy gold and political platinum.

[Blanks]

16. I grew up in Idaho...

And I lived in Kansas for 16 years. I lived in Louisiana for a couple of years.

People used to ask me: they'd say "I've been to Idaho. It's beautiful, why aren't you living there now?"

I don't get asked that as much as I used to, but I live in Arkansas and it's beautiful here too. You can dog on the south all you want, but I'm not seeing that kind of crazy around here.

[groundloop]

18. A modern day version of The Village People?

If this stuff weren't so serious it would be hilarious.

[rocktivity]

19. Well, if a secret Kenyan Democrat can be president

20. This is the greatest debate of all time

You have a sleazy old school party hack, a teabagger, a biker, and a crazy old guy.
These days the republicans have embraced crazy old guy. They love them some crazy old guys.
The teabagger guy is scary. He is very well prepared and very serious. He works for the Kochs. Dude is polished.
