I still don’t get the big certainty Cain has no chance considering his leading in the polls. When are his numbers supposed to collapse? Cain still leads in the polls but has a 5.5% at Intrade, so everyone is super sure he’s going to collapse. But do they have a timeline?
Well, let’s just hope it’s not after the primary.
I wonder if the National Restaurant Association has the problem of heavily armed people showing up who went to the wrong meeting.
I forget: Do we all generally believe Bill Clinton is a rapist or not?
Are we really going to vote for Herman Cain who allegedly did an unwanted unknown thing to an unknown person?
It’s hard when Buttercup is sick because she’s not old enough to understand the phrase “Suck it up!”
If I cared who won the LSU/Alabama game… it would still be pretty boring.
There was so much kicking in that LSU/Alabama game it was easy to mistake it for European football.
“I forget: Do we all generally believe Bill Clinton is a rapist or not?”
The official statement was something along the lines of: Yes, he raped her, but she deserved it.
As far as Bill Clinton goes, it is not true that liberals have a double standard. They have a single standard: liberals are guilty of nothing.
Bill Clinton, our national Rapist-in-Chief Emeritus.
Clinton managed to get away with it because he is a democrat and was abale to ice away the entitre contraversy.
Liberals don’t know if Bill Clinton is a rapist, liberals don’t know if a drunken Ted Kennedy committed manslaughter. Liberals only know that the wealthy and politically connected are judged by a different standard than the rest of us. Really!?
Re: LSU-Alabama
That was such a horrible game that the two teams went from being ranked #1 and #2 to being ranked #1 and #3.
Now, instead of having to jump Oklahoma State and an SEC team to make it to the title game, Stanford, Boise State, Oklahoma, and Oregon have to jump Oklahoma and an SEC team to make it to the title game.
“Are we really going to vote for Herman Cain who allegedly did an unwanted unknown thing to an unknown person?”
Somebody had to distill this whole tempest-in-a-teapot into a single, thoroughly ridiculoid sentence. Thanks.
Don’t worry, Basil. In 2006 when Michigan and Ohio St. were #1 and #2 and Michigan lost by 3 points, they were still ranked #2 the next week. Somehow though, in the next two weeks, Michigan slipped from #2 to #4 in the BCS without playing a game and only losing once in the season to the number 1 team by 3 points.
So clearly, Alabama should go down in the rankings in the coming weeks, even if they keep winning.
What I really want to see is Arkansas beat LSU at the end of the season so there’s a 3 way tie for the SEC West and then Arkansas go to the SEC title game and lose to Georgia. Oh, and Oklahoma State lose to Oklahoma and Stanford lose to Oregon, who loses to Arizona State in the PAC-10 title game.
Basically, I want everybody in the top 10 except Boise State to lose as many games as possible. I’d love to see Boise play LSU or Alabama for the national championship.
@zzyzx: It was murder. Ted Kennedy walked 1-2 miles back to the party instead of going for help at a house 100 yards from the bridge. When his vehicle was spotted in the water the next day, the local FD diver was on the scene within a just a few minutes. Indents from Kopechne’s hands pushing on the top of the seat indicated that Kopechne had been breathing from air trapped in the vehicle.
If Fat Teddy had stopped for help, Joanne would have likely survived.
Fat Teddy had a documented history of DUI and fleeing police while at UVA. When chased, his MO was to turn his headlights off and flee at speeds of up to 90 MPH. The only reason why Teddy remained at UVA and out of jail was that papa was always good for a “gift.”
Indications are that Teddy falsely believed he was being pursued by a Chappaquidick police officer who had merely stopped to assist after Teddy overshot the turn that leads to the bridge.
When Teddy’s Olds was found the next day, the headlights were in the off position.
His Olds was found at the same time that Teddy showed up all nattily attired at the police station to report the accident. He had swum the channel back to the mainland after the accident the night before so that he could spend the night conferring with lawyers and family.
The local judge who let Fat Teddy off was rewarded with a federal judgeship about a year later
Hey Frank J., please moderate my comment.
Alabama and LSU should be demoted to DIVII status and removed from the top 50 forever! My Iowa Hawkeyes could have beaten either team with their scout team and a couple of cheerleaders playing wide receiver!
#9 – Burmashave,
I never knew that about the head lights being off.
That’s the final icing on the cake!
