This is by far the Most Bizaar Candidate Picks of the Disguntled Repugs
I was reading a post at Down With Tyranny and they were laughing about the gop picks and how the repugs are all upset over the shit picks they have.
Then, at the end they linked to this story on the winger RedState where the guy is dreaming of his perfect ticket.
You have to read this and keep from falling down laughing your ass off.

1. OMG! What world do they
live in!

We should help them out and start a draft R-B site!
Whoever the dem candidate would be would win in such a landslide the 'mandate' would be incredible! People would be running to vote for anyone with a D after their name.

5. And a "Draft Michael Savage" site as well.
(If we even conned them into having Savage do their keynote speech, we'd take 45 states!)

I have my own favorite delusional Repub candidate fantasy, though. Obama vs. Keyes, the Rematch: This Time It's National!

6. PLEASE tell me that won't really happen!!!
I mean, talk about someone actually WANTING World War III. For the sake of the world, not them! And I don't mean, replace Bolton with Ollie North on that ticket.



'Ronald Reagan liked Don Rumsfeld. So did Milton Friedman. Margaret Thatcher still does. Dick Cheney likes him too'


What a collection of evil people - I wouldn't recommend hiring someone who had them as his referees.

7. Next Republican Fantasy: Coulter v. Clinton.
They'd probably love that one.

Seriously though, these people are beyond delusional. It's like they know they're on the wrong team, so they've substituted fantasy and hyper-rationalization for reality and truth. My favorite part:

"So who likes Donald Rumsfeld and John Bolton? And who doesn’t?

For starters, Ronald Reagan liked Don Rumsfeld. So did Milton Friedman. Margaret Thatcher still does. Dick Cheney likes him too, as do Joe Lieberman, Victor Davis Hanson, Henry Kissinger, Mitch McConnell and George Schultz (who appointed him special envoy to the middle east). A surprising number of retired and active generals and admirals like—and perhaps more importantly—respect him. What’s more, Mrs. Rumsfeld likes him after being married to him for more than half a century, as do his three children and, to all accounts, his dog."

Wow...if Margaret Thatcher, Dick Cheney, and Henry Kissinger like a candidate, he's definitely going to be hot with the American people! I mean, if *those three* aren't representative of the American public, who is? :sarcasm:

9. I'm hoping they will nominate Newt.
He's been running around saying we should repeal the first amendment.
