Conservative Blog Puts It All On The Line, And We Will HOLD THEM TO IT

by Jim Newell  7:57 pm August 22, 2008

Oh man, thank you so much Wonkette operative “Dennis” for taking this screen shot of some blog called “Stay Red Kansas” that said it would SHUT THE MOTHERFUCKER DOWN if they were wrong about Evan Bayh being Obama’s choice. Ballsy! But if you go to this blog now, you’ll find that clause of confidence mysteriously removed! Uh oh, did… did it turn out you had an untrustworthy source or two? Well tough luck, Stay Red Kansas, it is too late — you will PUT THAT SHIT DOWN if Evan Bayh is not VP. We are watching. [Stay Red Kansas]

Stay red, Ponyboy. Stay red.

drrty martini August 22, 2008 at 8:03 pm

Stay flat, Kansas! Mmmm…pancakes.

Spence August 22, 2008 at 8:03 pm

I wonder if their inside source was that super-serial blog from inside the belly of the Washington Beltway known as Wonkette. Cuz they are never wrong, with their top-placed sources in the Mid-West bumper sticker industry…

smashtheduck August 22, 2008 at 8:05 pm

Well MSNBC is saying it’s not Bayh or Kaine. My money’s still on Lieberman.

4tehlulz August 22, 2008 at 8:05 pm

If Bayh is not the nominee, folks, we will shut down this blog – or not – that’s how confident we are.

[re=67096]Delicious[/re]: I lolled.

paolaccio August 22, 2008 at 8:06 pm

Hells yeah. If it ends up being Edwards, or Edwards, or Nelson, or Nelson, me and Joe Chan will “hack the Gibson.”

Word to your mother’s own.

amazingtomatoes August 22, 2008 at 8:06 pm

“Even Bayh”? It looks like Kansas will not be staying red much longer.

SayItWithWookies August 22, 2008 at 8:06 pm

You expect them to get that prediction right? Hell, they didn’t even get red right. Stay pink, Kansas!

passthearugula August 22, 2008 at 8:06 pm

I’m fairly confident that no matter what the text ends up saying they are going to have to shut that bitch down since to my knowledge no one named “Even Bayh” actually exists.

El Bombastico August 22, 2008 at 8:08 pm

Ambinder says “Biden on the Move”! In other news, I’m going to kill myself!

AngryBlakGuy August 22, 2008 at 8:08 pm

…I have a feeling that “Stay Red Kansas” has been getting “inside tips” from Bill Kristol!

defeatism August 22, 2008 at 8:08 pm

How about we just kick Kansas out of the Union if they’re wrong? I vote for that shit.

cockblock August 22, 2008 at 8:10 pm

“SHUT THE MOTHERFUCKER DOWN”
Like that phrase.
I shall work it into conversation this weekend.

the outsider August 22, 2008 at 8:11 pm

[re=67108]passthearugula[/re]: Darnit I was just going to post something similar. I must improve my wit’s reaction time.

Schadenfried August 22, 2008 at 8:12 pm

[re=67111]defeatism[/re]: Can we also put the McDonald’s and Hallmark boycotters in Kansas if it’s kicked out?

WagTehGod August 22, 2008 at 8:12 pm

Yeah, if any blog has the inside dope on the inner circle of a Librul’s campaign, it’s got to be a conservative blog. And one in the middle of fucking Kansas.

TurdBlossom August 22, 2008 at 8:16 pm

Clearly we need a Fox News-style count-up clock…days since Bayh was not the VP and Stay Red Kansas is still in existence.

Not_So_Much August 22, 2008 at 8:18 pm

Fucking pansies. I they were really confident, they would offer to shut every right-wing blog down.

I’m not impressed.

Wonkette: Taking out the red blogs one at a time.

edgydrifter August 22, 2008 at 8:18 pm

This, according to “several inside sources close to the situation.” Translation: “My roommate who saw that bumpersticker on Drudge that looks so professionally-made it has to be real.”

Delicious August 22, 2008 at 8:19 pm

MSNBC says Bayh, Kaine are out of the running.

It’s Biden.

jagorev August 22, 2008 at 8:19 pm

I’ll go one step further: if it is Bayh, I will motherfucking burn their blog down.

Delicious August 22, 2008 at 8:20 pm

Oh yeah, SHUT THAT MOTHERFUCKER DOWN!

Speed Ball August 22, 2008 at 8:21 pm

I read just read that blog and think they should shut it down either way.

jagorev August 22, 2008 at 8:24 pm

[re=67109]El Bombastico[/re]: Relax, the “move” Ambinder reported happened in Biden’s bowels. The man is taking a colossal dump, as we speak. Wolf Blitzer is standing by.

jerryw August 22, 2008 at 8:24 pm

I’m sure glad Toto and I aren’t in Kansas anymore, but if Hell-a-ry gets the nod I’m Canada bound.
Vancouver’s looking good now, a nice place to watch O throw the election away from.
My last piece of advice to Barack:
If somehow Ms. Clinton gets on your ticket, learn to sleep with one eye open.

[re=67109]El Bombastico[/re]: Aww, come on! Biden will be able to say everything Hopey can’t.

We just have to keep Obama healthy, cuz nobody wants to have a Dean Martinesqe presidency.

Godless Liberal * August 22, 2008 at 8:25 pm

If they really believed their sources, they would promise hari-kari if they were wrong.

Speed Ball August 22, 2008 at 8:26 pm

Has anyone noticed how articulate and clean Joe Biden is.

Truly stunning.

AngryBlakGuy August 22, 2008 at 8:27 pm

…this liberal use of the word “MOTHERFUKKA” must be a tribute to Bernie Mac!

[re=67130]Gopherit v2.0[/re]: I agree. That came out wrong. I meant I want to kill myself because of retarded media speculation. Clean articulate Joe would be awesome.

[re=67128]jagorev[/re]: In the Shituation Room?

No fruit too low-hanging for me, folks.

Gopherit v2.0 August 22, 2008 at 8:28 pm

[re=67132]Speed Ball[/re]: It would be awesome if Hopey introduced him that way at the convention.

El Bombastico August 22, 2008 at 8:30 pm

[re=67133]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: Wow, you just FUKKED up my margins on IE. I must have closure on this madness NOW!

his site background is pink, like a ghey.

Delicious August 22, 2008 at 8:32 pm

Now they’re saying the text won’t come out till tomorrow morning. How the fuck are they going to hide the fact that Biden is flying to Illinois?

Unless that’s another fake in a day of fakes and it’s HILLZ!

AngryBlakGuy August 22, 2008 at 8:33 pm

[re=67138]El Bombastico[/re]: ….hehehehe, FireFox MOTHERFUKKAS!!!

Chuck Fildren August 22, 2008 at 8:42 pm

They even admit that nbc news is reporting that Bayh and Kaine have been informed that it is not them. So crazy right-wing blog or heralded legitimate news organizations. hmmmm … I wonder who’s right.

I bet their sources are just the guys they buy truck nutz from.

ForTheTurnstiles August 22, 2008 at 8:43 pm

Biden now? Okay, fine, I can deal with Biden at this point. Fine. Just give that motherfucker a decent haircut. That semi-combover puffy thing reminds me of my pedophile uncle.

Gopherit v2.0 August 22, 2008 at 8:49 pm

[re=67149]ForTheTurnstiles[/re]: Just not a $500 haircut. We don’t need to hear that shit again.

El Bombastico August 22, 2008 at 8:50 pm

[re=67149]ForTheTurnstiles[/re]: Peggy Noonan would like to strenously disagree.

gliberal August 22, 2008 at 8:53 pm

Motherfuckers can’t evan spell.

El Bombastico August 22, 2008 at 8:54 pm

Here’s what Ambinder is saying now: “Source: text will be sent tomorrow am, a few hrs before Obama speaks in Springfield. 9 minutes ago”

Goddammit, I need release. I’m off to 29th Street.

I’ve been watching the Joy Division documentary. Did I not miss anything?

By the way, Barry, love will tear us apart.

DoctorCulturae August 22, 2008 at 9:11 pm

My new theory is Hopey is going to pick someone who will be a kind of father figure. Remember he never knew his father. He’ll need someone who’ll be an advisor on international affairs, who’ll know how to make things work on the hill, and is likely to be a rabid dog on the campaign trail. His hand-picked daddy then is likely Biden…. or Gore.

Chuck Fildren August 22, 2008 at 9:14 pm

touche, stay red kansas, apparently you aren’t total dicks.

Maybe beer can help. I’ll be back later to let you know.

Stay Red, Trucknutz.
Then get that shit checked out, that aint normal.

Peppy Georgian August 22, 2008 at 9:37 pm

Holy shit. It’s not just me, right? Did they actually shut down their blog?

Thi sis all very weird, as http://stayredkansas.com still works, but http://blog.stayredkansas.com has a *DNS ERROR,* which I didn’t even know you could shut down that fast. Something is afoot. But maybe it’s just Hope.

museum of folly August 22, 2008 at 9:44 pm

“Firefox can’t find the server at blog.stayredkansas.com.”

Either they’ve shut or — more likely — they can’t handle the Wonkette traffic.

They probably meant to register the domain stayredneckkansas.com anyway.

mattbolt August 22, 2008 at 9:53 pm

They’re running off a free GoDaddy account. If you’re too stingy to even pay a hosting fee, the amount of bandwidth they give you is enough to topple in a slight breeze of hits. Nothing to see here, just a case of exceeded bandwidth. If by morning when it’s plainly clear it’s NOT Bayh (like MSNBC is now saying) we’ll see if the site holds up their end of the bargain.

S.Luggo August 22, 2008 at 10:12 pm

Bayh is muslamic for convert. He’s the VP Ubama choice. Trust me.

Jingo August 23, 2008 at 12:14 am

Oh Crap! If Stay Red Kansas goes down, what will the 5 computer owners (3 can actually use them) in Kansas do with their free time? My guess is online searches for Hogzilla and crystal meth recipes will skyrocket.

Scooter August 23, 2008 at 12:54 am

Hey Jingo! Yeah, You! Guess what? I’m typing this on an effin computer from the effin middle of effin Kansas!! Yeah Baby, I’m one of the three!! So there!!

Aaah, I got nuthin.

Scooter August 23, 2008 at 1:03 am

Yeah and by the way Jingo, we don’t need to Google no damn crystal meth recipes since they’re already printed on the back of our drivers’ licenses. Jeez!

Kotter August 23, 2008 at 1:44 am

Even Bayh, thoughts abound like butterflies…

Kotter August 29, 2008 at 7:19 am

Dammit, their blog’s back up.

I blame ‘Even’ Bayh.
