CAMPAIGNFUL

Kim Kardashian has declined an invitation, saying “Honestly, the whole thing is beneath me.  What am I, a media whore?”

I wouldn’t buy a spatula endorsed by Dan Quayle.

You’re on the clock, Representative Bachmann.

Mitt Romney just announced that he won’t participate in the Trump debate.  In other words, he’ll ABSOLUTELY be there.

Name a SINGLE person who has ever criticized Donald Trump that he hasn’t immediately (and publicly) taken a mean-spirited potshot at.

Go ahead, I challenge you to come up with one.

Some people just can’t take the high road, physically incapable of turning the other over-tanned, disturbingly orange-hued cheek.

Even WITHOUT Herman Cain, this Republican lineup would make the ’62 Mets blush.

Dear Representative Pelosi:

We have dirt on Newt Gingrich, too.

Signed,

Every man, woman, and child in Washington, DC

According to a Cain spokesman, “Herman will instead spend the day sexually harassing women, free of the oppressive level of scrutiny he received as a Presidential candidate.”

Herman Cain raised some eyebrows when he quoted from Pokemon:  The Movie 2000 during the closing moments of a stirring speech where he suspended his ludicrous, doomed from the get-go Presidential campaign on Saturday.

Crazy, you say?  ”Pokemon?”, you say?

Not so crazy.

Sure, Cain could’ve quoted from any number of inspirational, heartfelt, historically significant speeches delivered by actual human beings facing profound, real-life crises, and instead decided to quote a Donna Summer song from a children’s Japanese anime film.  From ten years ago.

What you might not realize, though, is that this was in fact a nod to the late Richard Milhous Nixon.

Those of you who were paying attention back in 1974 might remember this line from Nixon’s famous resignation speech:

“So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain.
Wave good-bye to cares of the day.
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from lullaby bay.”

Nixon totally nailed it, and where did THAT devastatingly somber line come from?

The Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Soundtrack.

And they say Republicans don’t know their history.
