An Occasional Note on the 2008 Campaigns, No. 5


Click for big version

Caption: Although the major Democratic presidential candidates did not campaign in Florida prior to the primary in January, that state’s Democratic convention happened to coincide with Clinton’s 60th birthday last October.

::Q&A::

Q. Where in the world can you have your cake and eat it too?
A. Michigan and Florida.

Q. It’s 3am and a phone is ringing in the White House. Who do you want answering it?
A. If your name is Monica, you better hope it’s Bill.

Q. Who will win the election in November?
A. John McCain.

Have Democrats gone off their rockers? I cannot believe they’re seriously talking about having do-over primaries in Michigan and Florida. Who the hell is going to vote in November for anyone from a party that makes rules never intending to apply them?

Suck it up, MI and FL! Talk about Dumbocrats! Republicans can just lie back and take a snooze.


Caption: The souvenir handed out at the Florida State Democratic Party Convention, held at Disney World.
