My Republican neighbor came by the house today.
My wife and I were out front doing some yard work, and the neighbor from across the street, a few houses down drove by.

He stopped and said, "OK, you win. I'm voting with your guys from now on. I'll never vote for another Republican for ANYTHING, as long as I live."

And he went on a whole litany of how the Republicans in the Florida legislature, Congress, Jebthro, and the chimp have been fucking him.

I couldn't get him to pull out his checkbook for a few candidates.

2. What was it that woke him up from his slumber?
Usually, it's one big thing that jolts a person's perception of reality.

10. I think the combination of homeowners insurance
And chimps big idea to let Dubai supply our weaponry finally did it. And the funny thing is, Gus Bilirakis, the Repuke running for his daddy's congessional seat here (FL-9) is his wife's attorney. At least he was until now.

13. Dems will rescue us again...
from the total catastrophe that is Republicanism and after a few years people like this will forget. The Republicans will stoke their racism, homophobia and xenophobia and we'll be off to the races again. It is an endless cycle.

4. Good news...
Now if we could just get the hopelessly confused to sit on their hands on voting day...

Maybe someone should sponsor a evangelathon on voting day...with Xian celebrities...keep the freeper types glued to their TV sets and telephones.

Gawd, I'm evil.
