There is nothing deliberate or nefarious about today's GOP. No one is in control.

(Not that I am especially attracted to him) but he also looks presidential. Obama has a lot more substance and style than Rmoney though.

are you a witch, as in a raging biotch, or a pagan? If the latter, how can you sit there on your Tex-UHHHHS arse and call names instead of promoting spirituality, dearie?

I am allowed.

Bush Jr. just ran Texas into the ground.

I am a true Yellow Dog Texan it you know what that means.

I did my share for the Democratic Party.

Romney is just a empty suit.

He looked even better then.

I think HE thinks his looks should guarantee him the Presidency.
