Romney’s Only Chance To Win
Here’s a short version of how Romney could be even a bit electable, it’s self censored and goes like this:
“Keep Mitt sequestered / isolated so he doesn’t “F” himself with his own “D”.
O.K. , let’s move on to the long form that reveals a method for the above…..
There’s really no polite way to say this, but after blowing his slim alleged (by FOX) lead with oh so many incredibly stupid statements and lame actions in the past month or so, Mitt Romney only has one last remaining chance (o.k., maybe 2, read the postscript added to the bottom of this post) available to him to still win the upcoming presidential election in November. It involves following a few simple steps, I know what they are and I’m willing to share them with him (and you), so here goes.
1. The first step will require Mitt to have no contact with YouTube, Stumbleupon, Twitter, Flickr, Reddit, Digg, LinkedIn, Facebook updates, or any other so called social media presented to him (and that includes those few dozen people still using MySpace), nor will any other process whatsoever yet to be invented be allowed in or out of the area where it could be seen by him. Remember this: In politics as in life, it’s now how many stupid things you do, it’s how many people are aware of you doing it.
2. No Snail Mail or phone calls to or from Mitt, at all, ever! Remember, this is the kind of guy that pranking was invented for.
3. There can be no personal visits from either of those Koch Suckers (o.k., Brothers), Sheldon “The Pride Of Seizure World” Adelson or any of their ilk (a.k.a. investors who wait quietly for their big R.O.I.). This also will include Mitt’s campaign staffers or anyone else, even (and some may say “especially”) family members, as this is likely to violate the established federal limit on “Allowable Stupid Per Square Foot”.
4. And finally, at this very crucial campaign moment Mitt must quickly enter and then stay inside of this “Fortress Of Solitude”, at least until the election’s over. Hey, now we can find out if he’s really serious about wanting to be elected president this time, and if he’s going to be able to ignore those pesky 47%, which as he says is made up of welfare cheats, writing off votes that he will never win over anyway, anytime, anyhow.
There is an observation for you take into consideration, a little research will show you that Mitt Romney’s father, the late Michigan governor George Romney, was born in Mexico and raised as an immigrant in a household in the U.S. This household was one that managed to survive mainly because they received what was then called “Relief“. And by the way, we now call relief money “Welfare“, so that means that Mitt’s a son of a 47 percenter, instead of being “that son of a …..” that many refer to him as.
And by the way, it’s worth knowing that a similar history is shared by the steaming short pile known as Paul Ryan who has been unstoppable in his desire to end what he considers to be the ultimate enemy of the people, Social Security. Strangely enough, in Paul’s youth he himself received survivor benefits after his father died. Imagine that, he took the money that paid for his education from that same Social Security agency that he now wants to dismantle. It’s sort of the old “It’s o.k., I’m in the boat, go ahead and pull up the ladder” methodology that his campaign partner has used all of his life. And that’s Mitt Romney I’m talking about, a guy who was born on third base and then has spent the rest of his life extolling to anyone that will listen how through extreme diligence he was able to stretch a double into a triple.
That postscript note I mentioned at the top of this post:
Many people are happy thinking about what the likely results from the coming election will be, but that’s only until they realize that it isn’t who gets the votes that counts, it’s who controls the machines that count the votes that counts, therefore, Romney may yet have the last laugh, i.e. “Machines are people too, my friends”. O.k., make that the “Last Cackle”, since his version of a smile fits the description of what most people call a grimace……

Pure Silence Can Be Deafening……
There is now something that’s lower on the dB scale than the previous record holder, a sparrow fart at 50 feet.
The new low in a recorded sound level comes from the Republican party shortly after they had their asses handed to them on a silver platter, as would be appropriate for a party with a presidential candidate who by all indications was born with a silver spoon planted firmly in his ass.
With a sound level lower than that of winter time crickets, it’s so quiet in the Rmoney camp that by comparison it’s easy to hear a sparrow peep (or fart).
To know what “real” silence is, try asking Mitt Romney about his financial history. I suspect that the reason he will not show his tax returns from before 2010 is because it would prove that he had received insider information, and by cashing all of his holdings in at the last moment, he actually made a financial killing at the same time everyone else in the country took a beating on their investments and savings.

Only A Few Hours Ago……
While I was watching the televised Democratic Convention in Charlotte, N.C., I saw the person who, if no one can convince Michelle Obama to run, will be elected president of the United States of America in 2016. Of course, like everything else in my blog, this is just my opinion. Find yourself a nice and comfortable place to wait, and after his nomination you can feel free to congratulate me on my incredible foresight.
At this time he’s the mayor of San Antonio, Texas and his name is Julian Castro, and he will, even without the growing Hispanic voter element, stomp the living crap out of anyone who will be stupid enough to run against him.
And just to clarify, if the past is indeed prologue there will never be a shortage of opponents in the cesspool that the Republican party has become who are willing to try, or ignorant enough to be convinced they will have a chance if they run.

In The Poorhouse With Great Memories
Of the 330 plus postings I’ve done so far on this blog, below are the two most popular photos as indicated by number of clicks that show up daily on my WordPress stats page, and one that’s new. Either one of the top two could be easily categorized as being “High Maintenance”, and either of those could slam me straight into the poorhouse in a heartbeat, but what a great final heartbeat. And bringing up the rear, as he was born to do, is the always smiling (some may say it’s a grimace) Paul Ryan who was born on third base yet thinks he’s entitled to believe that he hit a triple, ignoring the Social Security benefits he and his family received but he would deny to others. Sadly, like Moses (or perhaps any of his other guides), he’ll never actually get to see the promised land unless he waits in line for the White House tour.

If you’re a copy proof reader who is looking for work it might be worth your time to send your resume off to Target ASAP, because it’s looking like there may soon be a career opening available.
