*SO WHAT WAS THE POINT OF LAST NIGHT?:* The Obama camp projects topping Clinton last night by 13 delegates, 847 to 834; NBC News projects Obama will end up with between 840 and 849 delegates, with Clinton between 829 and 838.

Romney Possibly Rethinking This Whole Thing

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Is he ready to pack it in?Mitt Romney is a savvy businessman with executive experience — that’s why he lost nearly every state primary last night to a broken old man and some guy named “Huckabee.” Today, the Mormon heartthrob will be applying his robust analytical skills to deciding whether or not he should blow another $35 million on his doomed campaign.

Our National Voting Shame: Nobody Knows When To Do This Crap

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Rudy Giuliani, elected Emperor of Florida six weeks agoAwesome Tuesday has turned into Hungover Wednesday. As we sit in our easy chairs with comically large ice packs held to our skulls, let’s remember one important thing: however empty-brained and regretful we feel today, we can still take heart that we are smarter than thousands of morons across this great nation. Because as Walnut King John McCain might say, my friends, my friends, the Super Tuesday voting confusion did not end with the states of Texas and Washington. Who are the country’s stupidest voters? Click the clicky and we’ll join you after the jump. MORE »


The Latest Delegate Projections: Obama 841, Clinton 837

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Love, soft as an easy chairSo much for resolving anything on Super Duper Stupid Tuesday. Chuck Todd is on the MSNBC right now, doing the modern-day Tim Russert act of scribbling on a computer tablet instead of the dry-erase board popularized in the previous century. And guess what? This is all pretty much a grim $100-million stalemate. MORE »


Empires Rise, Fall And Still Obama Speaks

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Barry Obama gave the longest speech of his political career tonight, and it was all about the wind in the corn and “who are these boys who have so little?” Watch all 20 minutes and feel your love for Barack F. Kennedy slowly draining away like a whispering Iowa cornfield filled with the hopes and dreams of Americans. YES WE CAN!

Corn fields of Iowa! Teachers, cooks, hills of Nevada! Voices of the American People! Maybe we don’t have to be divided by the race and the gender! Crumbling schools! Not this time! Yes we can! Stakes Too High! Washington Players! MORE »


John McCain Wants You To Get Used To The Idea That He’s The Nominee

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

McCain is back! Or, “Mac is back.” He speaks now to tell you he will never forget how you all pretty much abandoned him last year, and only grudgingly came back to support him when the other candidates all flamed out so terribly. Also, why does McCain always thank “my children who could not be here”? How many children does he have? MORE »
