I admit to nothing until the price is right.

What I'd like to see is changes to the primaries. There's no need for Iowa and NH to decide the candidates.
How many MONTHS do candidates spend in Iowa? It's ridiculous.

It's ridiculous and makes for outlandish ethanol-based policy. The importance given to the Iowa caucuses is probably more ridiculous than the electoral college.

You don't enjoy discussing the Hawkeye Cauci?

What I really got tired of was everyone moving up their primary so it'd be more relevant. Which meant that the primaries were less relevant and we picked the candidates way too early in the cycle.
I'd prefer that the Convention be the meaningful place to make the final decision and assemble the platform but it appears those days are gone.

What happened to the days of a king? Now, those were the days...

I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.

What's dumb is that everyone will move their primaries up for this

I was just thinking the other day about how Florida had too little influence in electoral politics.

So someone named Herman Cain is now the front-runner according to a poll. This should be a fun week for him at the top, following the same path of Bachmann, Perry, and Trump.
I has the awesome opprotunity to watch the GOP debate last night (stuck in a hotel). I can say this without equivocation: Mitt Romney has a chance to be our douchiest president. During the questioning time, he lobbed a softball at Bachmann in a pathetic and condescending attempt to prop her up, for the obvious reason of splitting the tea party vote.
Jokes on him though! Bachmann is polling at like 5%!

That said, the SNL portrayal of Cain will be epic.

Jesus H!:
BTW, who's the one who says "SERIOUSLY?" because that pretty much sums up everything.
