All-frickin-right. I do think Michigan and Florida should get a chance to re-do their primaries so that their “voices” are “heard.” This is despite my huge objection to the very existence of the swampy shithole of despair that is Florida (aside from Sarasota, which I have heard is lovely. Also, despite the fact that it is built atop a formerly lush and biodiverse kingdom of flora and fauna, Disney World is so much fun. I mean it. I know! I KNOW. I can’t help it.)
But.
No fair counting whatever votes those benighted citizens cast in their early-ass faux-primary for which the DNC penalized them. Rules are rules, bitches (by which I mean the respective Democratic state parties in FL and Michigan). That old shit don’t count. If you want to pay for a whole new primary, that’s your fuckin’ business, and good on ya. If not, suck on it and deal.
Of course Hillary is all, “Whatever, I don’t care about those states…BUT WAIT! I’M FUCKING LOSING? WHAT? ME? BUT I’M THE PRINCESS OF THE WORKING CLASS!” and then is all, “I TOTALLY care about those states. Let their votes be counted!” Your Monday-morning quarterbacking on this shit makes me want to vom.
I would like to take a brief time out to recognize the good people of Michigan for producing humans who I like. I’ve never met a person from Michigan I didn’t like, and I’ve met like three people from Michigan. Also, there’s Michael Moore. I love Michael Moore.
The end.
I’m hoping they don’t do a ridiculous expensive re-vote. Just divvy up the delegates based on the average polling numbers. Obama won’t care if they do it that way…he still wins.
That way both candidates (Hillary) doesn’t have to WORK IT in Florida and Michigan and spend more donated money there on ads and such.
I agree with you SO much about Florida. Miami and Miami Beach sucked, actually. Disney World RULES.
Oh, Stephen, when will the U.S. government and the U.S. citizenry start doing EXACTLY AS YOU AND I TELL THEM?!?! Because we have really good ideas, I’m convinced. Maybe we need to hire a PR firm.
Nah, a PR firm won’t do the trick…we need to use subterfuge, to slowly win over their hearts and minds.
I’ve GOT IT!
Have ‘Sally Forth’ start using our ideas and making them succesful in the strip. Soon others will take the hint.
I hear you know the writer…make it work!
