A real winner

Harry Reid is the luckiest SOB on earth.

Sharron Angle, the GOP Nevada Senate candidate and tea party favorite, has had a rough start to her general campaign to unseat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV)...

...Adding to her troubles, Angle said in an interview with a local Nevada affiliate that the country’s unemployed are “spoiled“

What I LOVE about the new breed of GOP candidates is their candor. They literally aren't smart enough to put the brakes on. The Orange Boehner's of the GOP may certainly believe this, but they have a modicum of sense to not actually say it. "Let them eat cake!"

That's the difference right there, DanF. Most of our patrician class have nothing but contempt for the plebes, but they're smart enough to play patriot or pretend to be regular folk. Their mistake was pushing the faux populism to the point that it got out of their control. They may just give the Dems enough ammunition in the form of completely unelectable loon candidates that the Democrats don't just hang on, but extend their lead. I wish I could say I thought that would make much of a difference, but for some reason I'm pretty skeptical these days.

don't forget her support of prohibition. that should work out, right?

Yeah, the prohibition stance will definitely go over big in Las Vegas....

Beyond that there's that the Einstein admonition that doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.

We did try that once before, didn't we?

Major Woody expressing some sadness that neither party is extremist, like he so obviously is.

DanF said...

Neither party is extremest? Are you honestly going to defend the party of Palin, Boehner, Limbaugh and Rand Paul as NOT extreme? But I forget, you're an asshole.
