"Sarah Palin: I Could Beat Obama"

Gag. Read this story.

Sorry guys. I know I have been absent from POT for a really long time and it's really not nice of me to return with a posting like this. But I felt it was really important everyone heard the latest Palin news.

Sort of makes me feel like this guy.

I look forward to the debate. Or when those don't happen, the first mildly tough question from a reporter. Or when those don't happen, whatever weird shit is going on in the background when Sean Hannity rests her head in his lap and strokes her hair, journalistically speaking. Maybe I'm just looking forward to shooting my TV.

Remember that scene in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest where MacMurphy's finally had enough, and he lunges at Nurse Ratched and tries to choke the fucking life of out of her? Yeah.

Know what, though; Palin is pretty polarizing within the Republican party, too. While the stupid superstitious bigoted wing of the party (a significant proportion) loves her, I don't think the non-asshole fiscal conservatives (also a significant proportion) are huge fans. Strategically, I think Palin is good for Democrats. The more she talks, the more reasonable people on both sides of the aisle place their face in their hands. Think Christine O'Donnell--if she'd had another month or two to just keep talking, the national election might have swung the other way.

And that's why I'll be switching parties and voting for Sarah Palin in the 2012 Primary.

Yeah, I've heard that reasoning before, but all that is maybe superseded by the fact that Americans are a bunch of garbagebrains. We're the worst people in history, worse than the Huns or even the Kurgans.

Lungclops said...

Wait, I spoke too soon. The Globular Amphorans were much worse.

Mr. Pony said...

Conan would totally fight those guys in the face. Maybe after we elect Sarah Palin as our leader, Conan will arise from his stone tomb and fight us in the face.

Lungclops said...

According to the Gimbutas, the Globular Amphorans became garbagebrained only after a process of kurganization had transpired.

I'm almost positive I have ancestors from the Funnelbeaker Culture. SRSLY.

Mr. Pony said...

I wish I had ancestors.

I think you may be right, Mr. Pony. Sarah Palin the presidential candidate would horrify voters - if she would submit to questions and debates like a normal politician running for office.

But I could also see her hiding behind her social media accounts and appearing at carefully staged events. She would sending out Facebook status updates and tweets attacking the "mainstream media" and "elites" conspiring to take away America from regular folks like herself. She could avoid the traditional TV debates, saying she would have to skip them because the media elite were only out to get her and wouldn't give her a fair hearing.

I'd like to think voters would ridicule her if she did this, but who knows...

Anyway, I often get scared by Palin news. I should be more brave.

What if Palin did run again and completely polarized the country...and it resulted in a second civil war? Or maybe she would make such an ass of herself in a debate the whole thing would kind of collapse on itself?
(Thinking funny things after work while sipping some scotch.)

Totally read that in her voice.
