Just heard on tweety- limpballs said she "blew it" then corrected himself and said that she may have jumped the shark with her vaccination comment.

Oh, we should start a pool for the date that she will withdraw from the race.

7. Think Fred AAG Thompson only lasted a few weeks?
The freepers were going completely ape shit when he got in. They were calling Fred their great white hope and he turned out to be their great white dope.

13. He made it into a couple of primaries
I doubt Bachmann will ever be in one at this rate.

I did forget Tim Pawlenty, he started about when she did and quit already, but he was never considered the front runner like she was for a few weeks.

2. Not that I am a Michelle supporter,
but I believe that Tweety got that from Rush, who said she "jumped the shark". Why in hell is Chris quoting Rush????

5. he played a clip of his show.
Edited on Wed Sep-14-11 04:31 PM by notadmblnd
I'm sure I made it clear in my post that is was a Rush quote.



On edit: maybe not? limpballs = rush



Anyway, from where I sit, he's the one that runs the teabaggin, wingnut party. Conclusion- they're done with her.

Didn't Pawlenty crash and burn pretty quickly?

6. She was on the way out long ago. Perry is next.
Distraction for the establishment choice, bought and paid for. Romney.

I say bring him on, because the Tea party will revolt and I smell a third party run. Can you say "cakewalk"?

The proof the talking heads are citing, is a puke taking Anthony Wiener's seat in NY.

15. That district has interestingly drifted

Year District winner District runner-up National winner National runner-up
2000 Al Gore 67% George W. Bush 30% George W. Bush 48% Al Gore 48%
2004 John Kerry 56% George W. Bush 44% George W. Bush 51% John Kerry 48%
2008 Barack Obama 55% John McCain 44% Barack Obama 53% John McCain 46%



It is still above the national totals, but not like it was when President Gore ran. I put the blame squarely on Koch and him whipping up the frenzy over the memorial and gay marriage with the Orthodox Jewish segment there. We don't need them anymore. The minorities in this country are growing leaps and bounds and I foresee a day when catering to the Jewish vote is no longer necessary. Just sayin. No offense to anyone Jewish.

18. When Rollins jumped ship, the
S.S. Bachmann had already been sinking.

She is now on the bridge machine-gunning all those in the lifeboats, just to be sure.

21. Toast
Perry is next. The well established ground game is a decade in the making and the establishment has made their choice. The Tea Party will go nuclear and I think there will be a third party run on the right. 10-15 percent, maybe 20 will follow and all Democrats need to do is stroll to the polls.

29. I agree.
Perry will not be controllable by the Eastern Money Republicans, those that haven't already will throw in with Romney.

I sincerely hope Perry picks Palin as his running mate and goes full Tea Party, and spends hundreds of billions of dollars in Big Oil money in a losing effort.

9. I don't see how that comment will hurt her in the primary. It will hurt with corporations
that make and sell vaccines.

I was sort of proud of her for accusing Perry of taking a bribe, because he did. Is that what the Tea Party objects to?

14. No, I don't think that they are offended by the accusation
They're offended that she implied he can be bought for such a small amount.

11. Welcome to the underside of the bus, Michelle
I guess the powers that be decided you were completely unelectable, after all. Oh well, you can your new-found free time to help hubby with his Clinic of Pseudoscience.

12. It's called the flavor of the month
Crazy Eyes was a nice diversion after T Rump bowed out before he quite had to get around to filing a financial disclosure form. Goodhair is next up, and it sounds like he already has some skeletons clattering to get out of his closet.

17. I'm lost here. She' s said so many
damning things that I haven't the slightest clue what this thread is about.

What is the money quote here? What were the words she said that broke the camel's back?

23. she said that the HPV vaccine causes cancer.
Then accused Perry of being bought by Merck. Rick said he couldn't be bought for the paltry sum of 5k.

20. These idiots are all distractions. Our uber-lords are just having some fun.
When they get serious, they will run Jeb Bush. As for now, they are ok with Obama having another four years to show the masses that the Democrats cant fix a thing.

22. Precisely
You hit the nail on the head. Most of those out there right now are angling for a number 2 slot.

It was Romney before it even started.

25. It may well be, but if the uber-lords didnt want Romney, they'd have KKKarl Rove take him out.
In my humble opinion, the uber-lords want Perry or Jeb. Perry looks like a loser. So I am guessing they will wait until 2016 for Jeb.

26. Well, see, you are on to something there
KKKRove has touted Romney, and dissed Bachmann and Palin. He is the establishment. Watch Perry get knocked down at the knees. It has already begun. Not for Jeb, but for the bought and paid for right to be the nominee by Romney. It is all delicious because they are caught between the organization and the tea party. The tea party might just run a third party candidate when Romney becomes the nominee. I smell disaster and I love it. KKKRove has already said some really bad (great things in my opinion) things about the tea party and the movement in general.

We are all pawns though, in a massive bilking mechanism.

28. I don't think they are the brown shirts.
The tea party started as a cross section of America in decline but was quickly co-opted by the fascist religious far right. I saw some polls that they are now more reviled in this nation, more so than their boogieman - the Muslims that want the same things we do in life. To think the tea party is about taxes anymore is fodder. Racists. They are the FRINGE. The more we can do to label them for what they are, rather than what they want people to believe - the better.

31. They are being used by the Republican Party as Hitler used the Brown Shirts. They are ignorant mob
followers. At some point the Republican Party will want to become relevant again and elect Jeb Bush. At that point with the help of KKKarl Rove, the Tea Party will be dispatched. In the meantime they are creating chaos.
