I think we can get 67 seats and remember when that repuglitard clown who said if the gop brand was dog food they would be taking it off the shelves??? we thought he was joking but they REALLY ARE taking their dog food off the shelves monday, I saw a commercial where a local repuglitard leader was singing the praises of non-partisan elections (and he didn't even wanna mention that he was a repuglitard), and, then about a minute later, I saw a commercail denouncing that same guy, using the words "Conservative" and repuglitard like they was the plague and leprosy or something to paraphrase a cliche, There is a CANCER on the GOP and there ain't no cure ... so smile more often, even if it's only in your head
