But nobody notices or cares, because we’ve all decided that, whether it’s true or not that Ohio was stolen, it will never be proven or even brought up in a meaningful way. There is not enough evidence to convince the world, so, though we believe (or even KNOW) that it’s true, we are forced to act like Bush won Ohio fair and square. So we just call the man the preznit and go on our angry, resentful paths.

(NB: I actually love it when I’m called angry by the wingnuts. I would be devastated if I could see my country broken, my constitution trampled and my future mortgaged for a stupid war and tax cuts for the rich, and be so broken down as to NOT be angry!)

And while you know, I know, and everyone else knows that 2000 was stolen, too, that one was at least stolen in such a way that we all acknowledged it. This one is different.

Just as it was only the far left that even cared that Ohio might have been stolen, it will be only the wingnuts that will keep trumpeting this. Facts won’t shut them down. The Corner will get all of their citizen journalists working to show that it MIGHT have happened, and that will be enough to convince them that it did happen (again, just like the left wing conspiracy theorists talk about Ohio in 2004).

But we’ll just ignore them and work with (and, at times, against) President Obama, continuing to try to make this great nation greater. That’s because we don’t need them to tell us what makes America great. We ARE what makes America great.

But I know some left wing conspiracy theorists with whom they could probably socialize. Which might at least get them out of their basements. And laid. Well, probably not laid. But out of the basement is a good first step!

Palin has a huge upside in the social conservative movement, whereas McCain is going to be a pariah in 22 days. In order to keep her future political career viable I expect her to start undermining McCain any day now, playing to the most extereme elem,ents of the party. In fact I expect that before the electioon it will become obvious that Palin and McCaion “disagree on strategy” with opening Palin pandering to the most violent, vile, racist elements of the party dispite McCain’s discomfort and despite what will probably be obvious indications that it is counter productive. Palin can’t afford to go down quietly, otherwise the theme that “McCain briught her up to the biog leagues too early” will start to take root and she’ll wind up a footnite. What she needs to do is go nuclear and her doing so will guarantee her future success.

I suspect that even now she is assembling a group of loyalists within the campaign who support her personally over and above the ticket, peeling support away from McCain from within his own campaign. The fact is, she needs to jump ship before it goes down, and she needs to start that process now.

All of this will likely benefit Obama in the election but don’t be surprised to see Palin run for President in 2012 on the ugliest platform we’ve seen in generations.

Only if you’re a socker MILF w/ a nervous winky. Delaware is, like, invisible to 99.9% of Americans. Why, you can’t even see it from Sarah Palin’s house.

When the remaining .1% actually DO see it, it looks like New Jersey’s prolapsed rectum.

Way to attack your running mate? You know you’re cruising when this doesn’t register. I mean if the credit card companies are doning this maybe Barack should talk to Tom Carper or I don’t know?

How fucking stupid do you have to be to tell the press that you are purposefully pretending to be outraged. Right dude, voters want to get caught up in Steve-o’s OMG minutia mini-problem tour during the middle of what must seem like Armageddon to millions of dimwitted dipshits known as undecided voters twenty days out.

Just stay home if you can’t fucking tell the difference between a Republican 72-year-old and his autistic nurse or a Black Irish Democrat and Labour James Baker.
