I pray that Romney replaces Palin
The economy and entire financial sector going tits up shows that Palin is the worst possible pick for VP. Who knows, maybe Romney will replace her on the ticket.

I sure hope so. I hate that fucker. Romney spent his adult life in Massachusetts, he found opportunities to make his fortune here, raised his kids here, and still owns a house in Belmont, MA. He ran for senator and then successfully as governor, running as a moderate conservative. 2.5 years of floundering around the State House and he starts his presidential campaign (unofficially). Every time that fucker left the state that was so good to him he'd badmouth the residents, politics, culture, you name it. He spent most of the last year of his ineffectual governorship out of the state.

I hope he gets on the ticket. I hope the election goes down to the wire** and he can practically taste that Legal Sea Foods clam chowder* in the Rose Garden...and then see Obama/Biden win. I want him to get soooo close to the goal he's wanted ever since his father failed to make the leap from governing Michigan to the White House and then have it denied. FUCK YOU MITT ROMNEY.


I feel better now. Fuck McCain and his lies to, while I'm at it.


* LSF chowder has been served at every inauguration for a few decades.

** Ok, really, I want a resounding Obama/Biden win that gives them a massive mandate to be the next coming of FDR and see them send neocons and right wing economics licking their wounds for 50 years.

6. I'm afraid that Obama is going to find...
...an economy so gutted by Bush's tax cuts that it will take at least a decade to fix. Back in the 1930s, Americans had that kind of patience; with current Americans' attention spans, they will look at the still-devastated economy in 2012, stupidly blame Obama, and elect a young fascist like Jindal.

7. Palin/Jindal
If Palin loses her VP bid in Nov. She's sure to raise her ugly head again, either as Rep or Senator, or on the GOP ticket for Pres or VP in 2012.

Hopefully Alaska residents have been humiliated enough with Palin now to not send her to DC as a member of Congress.

Maybe she can go work for the Carlyle Group with her own kind.

13. I am waiting!
Edited on Fri Sep-19-08 01:31 AM by d00mzday
I am waiting for Palin to pull off her face to reveal it has been Karl Rove all along. He yells while laughing evilly "I fooled you again, another 4 years".

I can hear all the hicks now. "AWWWW shucks Palin is a dude. Rove got us again!!"

14. Troopergate will be her safe path out. "I don't want to be a burden to the campaign?
This is what I think.

15. This will never happen.
They have buried the "Troopergate" scandal and the media will never do the job investigating. This is the only leverage we have against her and we will not know the truth until after the election, if ever. KKKarl Rove strikes again and he gets away with it because the media is in the tank for McCain. They never investigated Bush and they will never investigate McCain or Palin!!!

16. Yeah, Palin can't be replaced without ending McCain's chances ...
... so they might as well replace the whole ticket... if that's even possible at this late stage.
