I'm going to need a receipt. Sent by certified mail, please.

I don't want that bloodthirsty gargoyle to win the Republican nomination (too much of a chance that he might win), but I wouldn't mind watching West Virginia Republicans spending a whole lot of money denying Blankenship that nomination.

A year in prison has completely unhinged him. And I'd thought it too light a sentence. It was 12.5 days per death. I calculated it at the time. Doesn't seem like long. But apparently it was long enough to work all his screws loose - at least based on that video.

Politicians blew up the Upper Big Branch mine that resulted in the deaths of 29 miners? I don't think so. That's on you, Donny boy.

He's not going to win. No way in hell. I don't have to trouble my conscience by donating to him. I hope he pours his own money into the campaign and then sees it all go up in smoke.

They are all running against Hillary Clinton, Obama and even Al Gore.

thinking that if the other side nominates someone batshit crazy, the electorate will be forced to go with the sane one?

Gohmert, Bachmann, Schwarzenegger, Trump.

It doesn't work.
