[Veto!]

If the republicans running for prez are a train wreck, the dems are a cockroach race:

Yep, what little bit there is of it.

Ew...

Why bother posting articles from Salon? It is a left wing liberal trash. I avoid clicking on any articles from Salon like the plague.

[manc]

Never been on the site nor have I been on any of their radical loon sites. It’s not worth my time.

[okie01]

750 words of snark.

The language of the left-wing intelligentsia.

[Freestate316]

I’d have to agree.

[piytar]

And we are supposed to keep caring what leftard dingbats think?!

When I saw that pic I thought it was a thread about the deflated football

>>which presented a problem in 2008 when voters realized they were electing Palin to be a heartbeat away

The only problem was that most Republican voters wanted someone to jump out and yell BOO at McCain so Palin could get that one heartbeat to get out of her way and we could have a president who didn’t reach across the aisle more than he reached out to his own party.

[icwhatudo]

I remember joking back then that one day Palin will be looked at as the reason McCain lost rather than the reason he did as well as he did. People laughed...but then here we are.

[Reddy]

Let’s not just brush off this lunatic’s rantings... we can use her screed to determine what the left will be using to alinksy the R candidates. Who cares what she says about bush and romney. I’m concerned about Cruz.

The 2016 talking points have already been issued by the left. They are already using Palin as the archetype of the dumb Tea Party candidate; notice how she was used as a comparison in the article.

Cruz’s misspeak will be used over and over to prove that he is an idiot who can’t even give a speech. They’ll play the Green Eggs and Ham video over and over. We’re David against Goliath with the rats and the media against us.

[gov_bean_ counter]

You didn’t have to do that.

[JimSEA]

You know you’re on the right track when they start to “Palinize” you.

[Salvey]

Lovely gums.

[magellan]

[Fill in the blank] derangement syndrome.

[KarlInOhio]

Cruz/Ernst 2016 (just to make Walsh's head explode).
