re: #136 Ghost of Tom Joad

It’s not like he’s an Obama-loving pinko commie either. He pretty much checks off almost all of the weaponized-wingnut boxes, but just like Huntsman, even the slightest amount of bipartisanship with Obama and you’re a leper to them. The media drones on and on about the need to work together, bipartisanship, and reaching across aisles, but the second a Republican does it, they’re immediately voted off the island.

But, hey, it works for me, because the Republicans will continue to shit on their only nationally electable candidates in favor of fire-breathing morons who pander to their ODS.

Yeah, they loved him until he appeared with Obama after Sandy and was appreciative of the fact that the feds were helping him. I think Christie’s going to get the Huntsman treatment in the 2016 primary. Two term(assuming he’s re-elected which I think is reasonable) governor with good conservative creds but doesn’t view Obama like the devil. They’re going to end up nominating someone unacceptable to most Americans and then they’ll bitch yet again that their nominee wasn’t conservative enough.
