Thinking about rick scott as head of nat. rep. sen. cmte, my first thought was, "herschel

walker". Then I thought about the Alaska grifter,, about how they apparently thought that "any woman would do", since the Dems had women running.

Are rick and the rest of them of that same mindset with the ex-footballer? The Dems have a black candidate, we should have one, and any black will do?

I continue to wonder in what discount bin they find some of their "candidates". Even on markdown, they do not seem worth it.

makes me want to puke, and I feel bad enough already, after an EGD yesterday and a root canal today. Just trying to get it all done at once. But JFC, R. Ick Scott? Sen. Voldemort? What are they thinking? You can't even watch them as a comedy show any more.
