If you can remember when Fred, Morton and Bill were somebody, you're showing your age.

[dware]

The GOP peaked on Nov. 4 this year, then promptly surrendered. It’s all downhill from here. I won’t vote for another R for some time. Perhaps when they actually find spines I’ll consider it again. For now, however, I’m done.

[Breto]

The more they win the more thy act like losers

[GeronL]

“Mor-ton!”

[dware]

The more they win the more thy act like losers

You're right. And it breaks my heart.

[GeronL]

The GOP has already begun it’s dramatic death spiral

[nascarnation]

President Obama is likely to make things worse for the Democratic candidate in 2016

A year ago, I said that Axlegrease and Plouffy could elect Charles Manson as a Democrat POTUS in '16 if they wanted. Now I'm not so sure. It won't be a dull two years ahead, that's for sure.

[uncitizen]

The GOPE and these people who provide them cover and support can all go straight to H-E-L-L.

[Fungi]

True, why though is baffling. They need a spin of iron and testicles of titanium. Hear that Bonehead and McDrougal?

[Red_Devil 232]

Yep!

[JRandomFreeper]

Most of all, Republicans must avoid self-inflicted wounds such as prompting another government shutdown

I reject those assumptions.

If Hillary becomes unviable they still have a youthful Gov. Moonbeam in the wings (a sprightly 78 in 2016).

Someone needs to revise the lyrics to "Four Dead in Ohio" to "Four Dead in Benghazi" (in honor of Her Heinous).

"Jihad soldiers and MANPADS coming,
We're left here on our own,
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Benghazi..."

Rest assured, that moment will never come. Political courage is not their forte.

The GOP has a permanent mentality of defeat that is deeply embedded in the party’s DNA. They would rather switch than fight.

[RetSignman]

The Republican presidential race, in contrast, is brimming with potential candidates

[Starboard]

Hilarious! The crawling Turtle is a nice touch. lol

[Starboard]

If the Hildabeast and Moonbeam should falter, there’s always Fauxcahontas. I used to think that no one like her could ever be elected president. Now I wonder...

[nascarnation]

If a guy from Kenya named Hussein could be elected POTUS, certainly a sweet old native American granny from Oklahoma should be a shoo-in.

Candidates yes, but people with talent, conviction and character not so much.
