GOP Presidential Primary Field: Now 16.6% Less Sane
Or to put it another way, 83.4% Batshit (and the jury’s still out on Ron Paul). Jon Huntsman, the only thing between the GOP Presidential Primary Field and its own…
Corporate Raiders of the Lost Ark
I feel a little sorry for the Democratic Party’s ad agency. By the time the Republican candidate is chosen and advertising for the presidential election campaign starts in earnest, they’ll…
