Florida Report: Deface Cars For Ron Paul!

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

BOCA RATON — This whole GOP debate is the most exciting thing to happen here since Joe Pesci punched that kid outside the Jamba Juice. Ron Paul’s minions were handing out these little fliers all over the FAU campus Tuesday. This one was handed to me by a 40ish woman and her young son. Thursday’s the big Ron Paul rally! Not only do we get to wave signs, but we get to paint car windows, and we might even see the Ron Paul blimp! I’m just a tiny bit scared that my attendance at this rally may be misconstrued as actual support for Ron Paul. — LAUREN SELSKY


Hillary, John & Barry Put Vegas To Sleep

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008


That was sure worth getting up before dawn and making a five-hour drive to Las Vegas! Thanks, Democrats. Our coverage for the night is just about over, but we’ll have much more Campaign Trail Fun all over Las Vegas on Wednesday, which is basically today. There will be events, and perhaps a rally of some kind! All in the cause of giving Americans a “safety valve” so they can “blow off steam” by voting for pretty much identical elitist candidates. Anyway, here’s a recap of Wonkette’s Tuesday in Nevada, plus more pictures, if you want them. MORE »


Live Wonkette Nevada Debate/Caucus Coverage, Tomorrow!

Monday, January 14th, 2008

Still no nominees, right? Okay then, we’ll continue covering these damned caucuses and primaries. Tomorrow is Michigan’s primary, but it doesn’t really count except for a little bit, but only for the Republicans. (Michigan is always getting in trouble for screwing up the primaries.) And that’s why we’ll be in Nevada tomorrow.

It’s time for the exciting Democrat Debate in Las Vegas — although it’s hard to imagine a debate without charismatic firebrand Bill Richardson. And then the ongoing spectacle of casino-buffet employees learning how to do an Iowa-style caucus, but in casino banquet halls. Live Nevada Coverage from beautiful Las Vegas begins tomorrow afternoon. We’re even going to the debate and the spin room and all, even though we should know better by now.
