Truly our system is wonderful, allowing even fruitloop idiot kooks to run for office.

I don't want our tent any bigger than this.

My reasonable post elicited a personal attack from you?

I just posted three recent polls to you and none of them were straw polls.

I know they would love for Romney to win, but I also don't think they would mind MB winning. Perhaps closer to the primaries they will destroy michele and get their Romney in. Neither candidate can beat Obama. I also think you are correct in that they are using Michele to keep Palin out. If Palin does get in I think it is over for all the candidates. And given the fact Obama and company have not yet been able to destroy Palin, Palin in the race is their worst nightmare.

IMO, the current choice of Rep candidates really stinks.

That is LOL funny.

The one dealt with lily-livers, the other with real livers.

I well remember when the Tea Party picked up momentum. I told My wife, the day they let politicians get close, the pols will deviously start working to subvert the Party for their own ends.

Name calling and trying to personalize this? How about just staying focused and trying to stay on track.

A (completely unscientific) voice-vote straw poll of the (possibly unrepresentative) group, conducted by reporters

conducted by reporters

I’m not name calling, nor am I personalizing anything. I’d have to care what you thought before I went about personalizing it. As it stands, I find you amusing, but not particular important.

Is that what you call people you disagree with on some issues?

No. That's what I call Ron Paul.

Eeh, well, that’s pretty bad, but not unforgivable.

How you can say that when your posts to me show the opposite is baffling, but I notice that you keep evading the part about defending your original post about straw polling and Palin, and you keep ignoring the calls for proving your claim.

She announced in Waterloo, her home town. Said it was the home town of John Wayne. Wayne was born in Iowa. But the John Wayne who was in Waterloo was John Wayne Gacy.

Ouch.
