I just noticed yet another “outlier” in that IBD/Tipp poll, which seems a mite, er, idiosyncratic.

That poll has the Midwest voters adding up to 101%.
Math is HARD!

How in the hell is Obummer polling so well in solid red states such as Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Indiana, Virginia and North Carolina?

They woke up?

Does anyone know where Obama is getting the money (supposedly $2 million) for this triumphialist rally on the lakefront?

I heard your mama was blowing Florida for McCain…

I thought the real Rugged sloped off, never to return, after it was repeatedly pointed out that he had the gayest nick in winger history.

Perhaps it’s a cry for help.

Only my fear of appearing tiresomely pedantic stops me from speculating whether the “Ah’m a geddin’ out of here!” anecdote comes, in fact, from one of Milligan’s volumes of war memoirs.
No, I tell a lie. I am also deterred by my fear of Just Alison’s knowledge of numerous martial arts.

When Obama wins, celebrations will occur around the world. It’ll be like the Berlin Wall coming down all over again.

With bells on, Lesley! It might just mean the rest of the world has a chance of avoiding armageddon, which wouldn’t be the case if the Republicans carried on

Apropos of that last sentence, I can never see the word ‘armageddon’ without thinking of Spike Milligan’s novel Puckoon, because a character caught in mid-shag runs off trouserless into the night shouting “Armageddon!”, which someone hearing it takes to mean “Ah’m a geddin’ out of here!”

Okay, it’s funnier in Milligan.

You naive liberals, when McCain wins me and SecurityMom are going to bang on top of a pile of purged voter registrations.

Cheetos are a tasty snack and if we let them become of wingnuttia alone, then the terrorists have won. Mountain Dew Code Red, they can have, though. That stuff’s nasty.

At first I thought you meant pelican. But still, yay, thanks!

Nah, ya can’t eat pelican, Doc. They’re all rabid and you need one of those blowfish disassemblers to de-rabify them, and then the meat’s like badminton netting.

And hey, will the obnoxious Rugged in Montana who’s here, there and everywhere today stop stealing my name? You’re clearly a Leftist agitator attempting to sully the reputaions of those of us in The Heartland, so cut it out before you end up in the new McKain death camps that are coming for your type.

I had a flirtation with the jalapeno Cheetos, that died because there is just no way to worth with original art and cheeto fingers. I went back to my elitist Gargento’s.

Tried Cheetos yesterday for the first time in a very long time because the blogs are always making fun of them and I happened to buzz past the snack aisle and there they were. Real tasty actually.

My $25 felt like the best money I spent every time.

I sort of shorted Obama. I sent more money to something with the ridiculous name of “Tinklenberg” in MN without thinking much about it because I happened to have more in checking when I got pissy. Obama has his money anyway.

after eight years of hell, $25 is money well spent.
