    Romney Defends Bain Record, Hits Obama on Economy: ‘He Just Doesn’t Have a Clue’

    Mitt Romney lashed President Obama’s economic stewardship in an interview with TIME’s Mark Halperin on Wednesday, deflecting attacks on his years as a private equity executive and laying out how he hopes to take control of the economy as soon as he’s sworn in, should he defeat Obama in November.

    Mother of Mitt: How Lenore Romney’s Failed Campaign Shaped the Presumptive Republican Nominee

    This week’s TIME cover story, “The Mother of the Mitt Campaign,” tells the tale of how Lenore Romney’s 1970 run for U.S. Senate may have made a bigger impression on the Republican presidential candidate than his years spent as the son of a governor. Mitt’s father lost his own presidential bid, but it was the lessons from his mother’s loss that are more instructive as Romney enters the campaign stretch.

    Reminds me of the end of each ‘Flip Wilson’ episode when he and his guest would walk off arm-in-arm. All that’s missing are the soul handshakes and butt-bumping.

    “Great job, Joe… you didn’t go off-message once tonight!”

    “Mr. President, you’re the only one who spoke.”

    “Exactly.”

    The wives are away. We’ve got the whole place to ourselves. It’s time to consumate this thing.

    Biden: Did you see Boner when it passed?

    Obama: He turned so pale he almost looked white.

    Obama: I can’t believe that package you sent to David Vitter!

    Biden: What? It was just a card that said a change was needed and a diaper.

    newfreedomwhore – I see you crawled out from underneath your rock long enough to pimp your blog. Yes, we won. Now congress needs to get busy fixing this bill.

    Abe Lincoln Bust (shaking head): wow, what passes for historical legislation these days…

    Biden: Barack, I’d wait a few days before you announce that you’re renaming the Reagan International Airport for Bill Clinton.

    OT, but we’re having a hail storm here. They’re mostly about an inch in diameter, but I just snagged one monster that measured 1 7/8′s of an inch across. There are hundreds of thousands of them in the yard. I grabbed a bunch to throw in the freezer.

    …but alas, Olympia Snowe won’t be the lucky third. She kept her legs crossed too long while holding out for more during Senate proceedings.

    or maybe the First Two Couples are swapping tonight in celebration. Naturally, the wives need to exchange details –
    Jill: “Remember: it’s Sarah Palin all the way. Wear the hair, talk funny and dirty, fancy pageant walk, act like her, even go to the bathroom like her, you betcha.”
    Michelle: “Thanks, dear. I’ll watch the videos and nail her. As for First High and Mighty, sigh, you need to…”

  • deconstructiva

    Biden: “…oooooh, you’re right, it’s almost impossible to keep with Newton-Small and Tumulty while doing shots.”
    Obama: “I know, I know…they can keep pace with Michelle at hula hoops too. Is there anything they can’t do?”
    Biden: “Well, at least we beat Pelosi and Hoyer.”
    Obama: “Yeah, but they went down after the eight round. We gotta work on them.”
    Biden: “I can’t walk straight anymore and am gonna be sick.”
    Obama: “Hang on, between us both we’ll reach the john yet …it’s only thirty feet away.”

    Well, we did it, Joe. We just pulled off the greatest hoax in American history! But you know, it sure is going to get awfully lonely around here, come November.

    Obama and Biden are just about to practice their three-legged race run. They’re determined this year to kick ass at the WH Easter Egg Hunt festivities.

    Well, don’t forget about those 20,000,000 new voters we’re about to add to our party Mr. president.

    Obama: Hey Joe. Call Kevorkian and see if he’s available. I was going to skip the death panels but I’ve decided that for Palin I’ll make an exception.

    See? Just like I told you it would be. Piece of cake.

    Biden: “…besides, I had my daughter-in-law sign it, “Stormy Daniels.” She even dotted the “i” with a teeny-tiny heart.”
    .
    …and Biden thought to himself, “Guess I’d better NOT tell POTUS about what we did next. Jill sent an 18-wheeler filled with Pampers to Vitter’s home and wrote the note:

    Dear Sen. Vitter:
    Thanks to my mom’s fans nationwide, they sent me diapers for Tripp, but I don’t need that many. Mom said you could use them, so here they are.
    Love,
    Bristol

    I love Jill. She’s really got the Sarah Palin thing down well.”

    Big deal, sacredh. I live in Georgia, it’s spring, and it snowed this morning. This weather is really going to cramp my style, not to mention give encouragement to all the global warming deniers.

  • http://teacherreaderwriter.wordpress.com/ Shakespeare in GA

    FO for the win!

    Congratulations, but did you really win?

    We could debate that, rustyblog. Ask SZ if he thinks this is a win.
    .
    But I’m pretty sure that the Republicans lost.
    .
    And November? Bring it on.

    It was in the 60′s here today again. It’s in the low 50′s now. We just had over 2 inches of rain in less than 40 minutes. The power went out just as the rain hit. After the storm we went out to look at the damage. Lots of branches down. The flowers got pulverized and the MIL’s windshield got cracked on her car. The others were fine. The MIL was whining about only her car being damaged. I told her that God hated her fat ass.

    “A BLACK President? Cool.”

    Up to 55 today and sunny here in Minnesota. When it gets this warm, no more overcoats, etc.
