Any guesses as to how many times the GOP candidates will mention St. Ronnie tonight?
and try to tie themselves to him? forget the fact that Ronnie increased taxes both as Governor of California and later as president and increased the debt limit (on a clean vote) 18 times! and presided over what were then record budget deficits.

I say they will mention Ronnie an accumulated 115 times. I wonder if some college kids will make it a drinking game?

1. Drink once for each mention of "Jobs."
I'll call the paramedics.

4. My choice of code word(s) would be 9/11.
Too close, too irresistible not for all of them to use whenever possible.

9. Lots of talk about "job killing" regulations and prayers to Ronnie Reagan.
I also wouldn't be surprised if someone (probably Perry) will bring up some ridiculous fairy tale about how the only jobs Obama has created are in China. Of course, we know who the Chinese job creators really are (corporate CEO's with no loyalty to America or to American workers). But you know how republicans like to make stuff up and repeat it until some people actually believe it.

Back to your original question: oh about 220 times. I hope someone with a click counter (and lots of Tums) watches the thing to keep count. I may try to watch, but I generally have no stomach for right wing talking points.
