Anyone feel like the rMoney campaign is going to try something desperate?

I don't know WHAT, but they are really in a corner here.

You don't back an animal into a corner and expect them not to bite.

A knee jerk VP choice? "Proof" Obama was born on the moon? Biden shot JR?

Something?

ABC, NBC and CBS all have interviews with him today that will air tonight and then CNN and FAUX will have interviews airing at a later date (Sunday?).

He needs to tell the same lies no less than three times in a row today. I honestly am not sure if he can do it.


Condi for VP would be a beautiful thing to behold. I don't think even they are that stupid though.

I think these people are so out of touch that they actually believe a war criminal would make a good choice for VP.

On second thought, maybe they do believe that. They had a war criminal as VP for 8 years didn't they.

I never knew that. Come to think of it, I forgot who the Warren Commission fingered.

Oh, and for you stupid motherfucking teabagger trolls:

Case in point, and this is just my opinion so far, TVA enacting the 75 feet rule around power lines here in TN. As per the Channel 4 news episode I saw the other night, the Federal government told TVA to "do something" about trees that could take down the power lines. TVAs response was to enact a plan that would literally cut down a 75 feet swath on either side of power lines, whether the trees would even get large enough to take down a power line or were already at their peak height of say, 12 feet, and would pose no danger. Makes no difference. TVA is going to clear cut 75 feet on either side of power line paths. People are pissed, and rightly so, because TVA could select cut and keep every one happy.

It looks like she's being attacked by two otters.

Even the republicans won't be desperate enough to call her up.

Here on DU, actually.

Long before 2008. We were discussing good-looking Republicans and someone from Alaska mentioned her and posted that picture, all while admiting she was also bat-shit crazy. If we only knew at that time.....

Things disappear, replaced by "new" things. People take ownership because they are getting something monetarily for it. Citizens United has taken corruption to unknown levels. If any one has actual physical paper or evidence on Bain and Mitters, hope they made a few million copies and sent them to everyone they can trust.

I hate to believe this, but "experience" forces it. There will be a "real deal" somewhere.

As we used to do in typing class:
"Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country."
They'll need HazMat suits and hip boots!
