Things I learned from the 2008 Presidential Election...
1. For all their tough talk, Republicans are some of the most thin-skinned motherfuckers ever to walk the Earth.

2. The best way to get ahead in the GOP is to be a crook (Until you're convicted), or be a dumb ass (Which is incurable).

3. In the era of Bush, not identifying yourself as a Republican is the best way to run against the Democrats.

4. When in doubt, Grandstand!

5. Making a complete fool out of yourself on Saturday Night Live is a surefire way to show that you're serious about running for high office.

6. Nothing says, "We got them where we want them, my friends" like being forced to spend precious campaign funds to defend a state that should be safely in your column.

7. When you recruit people to join your campaign make sure that they aren't stupid assholes with their own agendas first.

8. When you slime your Democratic opponents with their questionable associations, make sure they were never on a Republican pay roll.

9. When all of your supporters are racists, crackpots, idiots, assholes, hypocrites, bigots, gun nuts and cowards, you're pretty much toast.

10. When your crowds are ten times bigger than your opponent's, it doesn't mean that you're a "celebrity", it means that you're doing the right thing to be the next president.


Have a Happy Election
