The Presidential race is getting pretty horse-racey in the waning days before the election, and both candidates and their running mates are furiously touring Ohio, Florida, and Colorado trying to convince people to vote for them.

Unprincipled perennial panderer Mitt Romney is really digging in deep in the final weeks before November 6, going after every last vote with the zeal of a Howard Hughes-style crazy billionaire trying to fly an airplane to space.

A newly invigorated Mitt Romney has been springing joyously along the campaign trail in recent days armed with a slight poll bounce and a brand new campaign slogan: "Clear eyes. Full hearts. Can't lose." Which would be a great, fresh take on quixotic optimism if that were an original Romney joint rather than something he … Read… 10/12/12 3:20pm 10/12/12 3:20pm

Here we have an ad for Manhattan Mini Storage, which seems to really capture the spirit of the age while offering precious little information about how wonderful storing things with Manhattan Mini Storage can be.

Time to woefully set the giant "DAYS SINCE SOMEONE IN THE GOVERNMENT SAID SOMETHING ASININE ABOUT RAPE" sign back to 0. It seems that the state of New Mexico is trying to limit certain state aid to only women who can prove their child is the result of "forcible rape." Not that other, less awful sort of rape that ladies… Read… 9/20/12 6:15pm 9/20/12 6:15pm

The 2012 GOP is a party that promises to return America to the imaginary 1950's white guy wonderland that only ever existed on the teevee, so it's no wonder one might find among its ranks individuals interested in relationships that adhere to, shall we say, antiquated models. Relationships where not only does the man… Read… 9/04/12 5:20pm 9/04/12 5:20pm

Paul Ryan lying about how fast he ran a marathon is kind of pathetic in the way the kid who lies and says his dad's an astronaut who lives on the moon when his dad's really an insurance salesman who lives in Ohio is pathetic. It's sad. It's unbecoming. And I guess it doesn't have much to do with politics — until you… Read… 9/04/12 4:20pm 9/04/12 4:20pm

Mittens Romney just arrived in Ohio and rolled out a new stump speech tailored to female voters, no doubt to win over everyone who remains completely appalled by Republican Rep. Todd Akin's "legitimate rape" gaffe (FYI, Romney immediately called his comments "inexcusable," but the fact is that Akin's stance really isn't… Read… 8/25/12 2:45pm 8/25/12 2:45pm

Janna Ryan, as in Paul's wife, as in America's potential future Second Lady, spends most of the year in her house in Janesville, Wisconsin, raising three young children as a stay-at-home mom while her husband is off doing Man Work in Washington.

At last, Mitt Romney's quest to find a single black friend can now officially be declared a failure. According to the newest round of polling, a grand total of zero percent of black voters say they support the former Governor of Massachusetts in his bid for the Presidency.
