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.
