Old Political Joke Updated (vanity)
FreeRepublic ^ | 10/31/2024 | self

Posted on 10/31/2024 7:13:30 AM PDT by CardCarryingMember.VastRightWC

In Summer/Fall 1984, Mondale was leading Reagan in the polls by a comfortable margin.
But as election day drew near, his numbers started dropping steadily, and Reagan eventually won in a blowout, taking 49 states.

Four summers later, Dukakis was similarly leading GHWB, but then also started dropping like a lead balloon.
One day, a friend asked me: "Do you know what 'Dukakis' actually means in Greek". Thinking this was serious, I replied: "No. What?"
He said: "It means 'Mondale'".

So now it's time to update this old joke! ...

Q: What does "Kamala" actually mean in Hindu?
A: It means "Hillary".


TOPICS: Chit/Chat; Humor
KEYWORDS: kamala

“Kamala” means “one who transports by cart or wagon”. In other words... Carter.

Then I guess Obama means FDR since he’s running for his fourth term as president.

Sad, but true. And Soros is Obama’s handler.

No, “Obama” is a Luo word that means “likes it up the tailpipe.”.

Interestingly, “Waltz” means “totally not a homo, promise”.

Go to a Finnish to English translator and type in: Kamala.
You’ll thank me later.

You're right, actually they started out tied, and then the gap grew steadily worse for Mondale, week by week by week ---

Reagan had a disastrous first debate with Mondale.
