And then there's this.
The honeymoon sure is over.

Apparently a satire piece which, without intending to do so, provided a test for gauging how dumb some members of the electorate are... (hint: Some of you failed).

If you actually read the article linked you would have also read:
Quote:
[Author’s note: Jonathan Swift did not really want Irish people to sell their children for food in 1791; George Orwell did not really want the clocks to strike thirteen in 1984; Paul Ryan, I am sure, calls Mitt Romney something more dignified than “Stench” and Microsoft did not invent PowerPoint as a means to euthanize cattle. At least I am pretty sure Microsoft didn’t.]

This is very, very, very true however,
Quote:
“I hate to say this, but if Ryan wants to run for national office again, he’ll probably have to wash the stench of Romney off of him,” Craig Robinson, a former political director of the Republican Party of Iowa, told The New York Times on Sunday.

D'oh! Glad I said 'if true'. That's my story, I'm sticking with it

I'll try again.
Here's a different clip of the "Ryan! Ryan! Ryan! Ryan!" fiasco from Morning Joe. It's followed by what can best be described as a post mortem of the Romney campaign. Clearly, Scarborough and Brzezinski think it's over.

True or not this type of infighting, backstabbing will only be a warmup to the bloodbath if they loose.
Who would of thought the GOP picked two VP's in a row that went rogue! HBO should do another movie about it.

What is really scary is some guy toting around PowerPoint presentations designed to hoodwink everyone into giving up their Medicare and Medicaid...

I got a chuckle from that AARP presentation. At one point "Knappies" McRyan said something about how America needs a good candidate, to which a man in the audience asked, "Got one?" Poor Ryan, he has to bring his Mom to protect him from a bunch of oldsters who were clearly not buying into his little slideshow. It's pretty bad when the geriatric set is booing and calling him a liar. At least he knows better than his mentor that putting power windows in a jet is a bad idea...
At least Ryan isn't giving up on his day job, yet. Gilligan just bought two million bucks in airtime in Wisconsin for a lousy toilet training seat in the House.
Can we go back to calling them Herman and Eddie Munster?
