Long Strange Trip

I think that the Republican nomination is shaking down perfectly for Newt Gingrich. The way the cosmos is aligning with the primary trip to the south. He will nail Florida. The damage the candidates will inflict on each other when they reach near parity will be deafening and maybe fatal to each of them.

The former speaker is arguably more malevolent but he is also assuredly smarter than Mitt. I mean malevolent in an evil sort of "let's pull the wings off of bugs" way.

All this Cayman Islands offshore talk might be upsetting Romney's chances with the rubes. I thought Newt was dead a few weeks ago but this thing could be a toss up now. I am sure that the thought of Newt as a GOP nominee and target has Axelrod and Plouffe creaming their jeans. Just wait for the guy to say something stupid and implode. What's the under?

Pretty sad the t-pardi-yers could give a shit about Newt making 6 million working for Fannie Mae or the ultra conservatives could care less about Gingrich walking out on his cancer striken first wife, but the borna-gans keep bringing up Mitt's religions history of polygamy, yet they ignore Next's second ex saying he wanted a second women in their marriage!

This is a great year to sell one's TVs. There is more agitprop on the way than Lenin or Hitler could have ever imagined. It must be time to "occupy" the Library or anyplace that is far away from politics.
