watching the pundits

there is absolutely bupkis on the tv- even with cable. so, i have been catching the big 3 on msnbc- sorry campbell brown but your no bias, no bull- is pretty much no substance. i don't really care about what kind of dog the obama kiddies end up with but i do care about possible rethuglican strategery. tweety is really pretty good at ferreting out stuff in spite of himself- and i have learned much over the last 2 days. the rethugs are rudderless at the federal level- but they are going to try and take each state at the gubnatorial level. so- vigilance people. governors and state and local elections- keep watch and don't get complacent.

what it boils down to- the haley barbour/pat buchanan contingent versus the tim pawlenty/some african american guy named mike (he was on hardball tonight and i will attempt to find his name)- the old school conservatives that don't want power to be wrenched from their gray haired, comb overed, white hands versus the we have got to reach out to the young people and sell them our brand contingent. neither version has any substance but i would hazard a guess that they will sell the new and improved brand of republicanism in 2012-

sans palin.

update:

mike paul is billed as 'republican strategist'- and imo- i didn't hear pat personally attack him. but i can see how mike paul got annoyed with the big bigot himself.

The phonies called Republicans are Fascists! I refuse to believe they are stupid enough to let Palin be their new face or to represent them in 2012. I mean what the hell?
I know some will but I really can't see anyone falling for their disingenuous underhanded crap again! Woo Youth and minorities you mean hornswoggle them. Come on!

I'm not conversant enough on the cackle channels to even pretend to know WTF I'm talking about. Our TV is on a lot, don't get me wrong. I mean, the damn thing is just sitting there, a prolific symbol of money wasted, so it's gotta be used for something. For me, that something is being at deuce in Wii tennis down two games to one, and fighting to stay alive for another round; a Wii bowling ball in my hand in the tenth frame, needing to strike out to keep my Wii score ahead of the old lady. You can cut the tension with a remote!!

"but they are going to try and take each state at the gubernatorial level. so- vigilance people. governors and state and local elections- keep watch and don't get complacent"
That's how they got there, starting way back pre-Newt. Take those school board seats nobody gives a fuck about,take that empty chair on the library commission that's been vacant for a year....then spread exactly like cancer. Silently and deadly, and by the time you know it's there, it's too late.

I'm a kickass Wii tennis player tho!:P
