To me, the real sin - shame - stain - of this GOP clown car event is the wasted money.

Think about it - if Ohio goes the way it is going, and Romney comes out as damaged good (we know he is....but the GOP will have to come to grips with it).... Santorum just can't be allowed to run against Obama. So what - a possible brokered convention with a coronation of...gulp.. another Bush?

But never mind that. We know it should be about jobs, poverty, income gap, money, the impact of gas prices - on one hand.....but on the other, isn't the hypocrisy of pissing away, totally flushing - millions and millions and millions of dollars on a thoroughly wasted effort - just breathtaking? As in making absolutely no sense whatsoever.

It just boggles the mind.

1. Think of it this way:

Behind every "Romney" placard is a guy earning a paycheck.

2. At least it's money that went directly into economy and not a freakin war. But

I do understand what you are saying. What if it all went to Alzheimer's research, or
to feed and clothe poor children.

3. And also: many of these silly campaigns have had to borrow money to survive

If Newt didn't have his sugar-daddy, he would be in debt right now, just from running his campaign!

4. This is some trickle down I can get behind. Rich plutocrats trying to buy an election...

...and failing miserably. Remember that woman in CA who tried to buy the govornership? Forgot her name.

But I love it.

5. Her name was Bobble-head Meg :)

6. Ahh, Meg Whitless...

...I remember now. Fun times.
