Romney lost his base tonight

Noticed on MSNBC they were talking about tweets from the grand poopahs of the far right that are aghast and can't figure out why he sounds like Obama when he was suppose to, you know, like promise us WW III. So if he piced up a few moron "undecided" clowns, he just flushed month's of right butt kissing right down the crapper.

there goes your chances, Mitt

RimJob's Commodore 64 tends to lock up when hit with loads like it would see tonight.

Safari can’t open the page.
Safari can’t open the page “http://www.freerepublic.com/” because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again.

Jim Robinson (owner of FR, and the man we lovingly call RimJob because...well, it's just so fitting) runs a continuous fundraising drive. IIRC he claims to pull in over a quarter-million a year from his minions in these so-called "freepathons." With this, one would think he could come up with the scratch to buy at least one decent server that could handle the load he gets, but that is not to be.

The site also looks like a junior high kid built it back when we were all still hand-coding websites. So where the hell is the money going?

When bob would make him answer first you could see the desperation in his eyes, face and hear it in his voice. Mitt romney was out of his element and he showed everyone watching that he has no clue how the world works. lyan and ryan are dick and W incarnate

Glad you're here! Hopefully this improves and strengthens President Obama's numbers - from now til Election Day. We need you to help us all make sure Obama gets a second term!

Now get to work.
