The Democrats will fire up the base by promising to put the first woman in the White House while the Republicans fire up their base with endless soundbites from old white guys and the occasional Freudian slip.
The fact that he reminds everyone of a creepy clergyman out to touch altar boys under their robes is not helping.
So I would be extremely happy if he won the nomination.
Seriously, there is not enough popcorn in the goddamn WORLD.
Oh, he wants it, all right.
This is going to be awesome. It's popcorn season again!
While that makes it an easier game for Democrats, we all lose as it means the Dems only have to field someone slightly better than a talking turd.
You can have a presidential candidate from any part of the political spectrum you want, as long as it is center-right or far-right.
Pretty poor analogy. Sure, the Bosphorus separates two major land masses, but not by very much. The English Channel is much wider.
Voters would be far, far better served by having two reasonable parties both presenting options for how to make the country better. But we don't have that. And we have to do the best we can with what we have, and try to prevent the damage done by any power that the party that has gone horribly awful may do.
Like Izzard's cake or death? It's an easy call, but not really a choice.
He will either be a Goldwater "true conservative" or he'll drive the eventual nominee so far to the right as to be unelectable. This is nothing but good news...it shows the GOP civil war is nowhere near over.
Many evangelicals didn't vote for Romney because he is Mormon. Santorum is Catholic and they hate Catholics as much, if not more than Mormons. They call the Catholic church the Whore of Babylon.
He isn't going to gain anyone from the left that Romney couldn't, and he is going to lose some from the right even if he is as batshit crazy as any of the extreme right wingers.
And you're wrong about the percentage of the gay vote. About 25% will vote for the Republican no matter who it is. That's the way it's broken for the last several decades except when they said something that could be construed as slightly pro-gay and did better.
I can't wait to see Mr. Lube 'n' Fecal Matter in a Sweater Vest get creamed again.
You're right, Dan---the 2016 GOP Convention (that utterly AMAZES me how much you have a stomach for!) is gonna be one helluva runny shit storm, complete with the lube.
Oh, yes. Please DO run. PleaseOhPleaseOhPleaseOhPlease. It would be a gift... to the democrats.
These guys get out there and they lose their minds. They are so eager to out Right the others that they start saying crazy shit to appeal to their crazy base. In the meantime their handlers are behind the stage having aneurysms because they know the crazy shit they are saying to win the primary are going to come back to kill them in the actual election.
These guys don't think ahead, and are out of touch with reality. That always makes for a fun debate.
The only thing that could make this more awesome is if they can get Sarah Palin and Christine "I am not a witch" O'Donnell involved as well.

So....maybe, this is what he wants from the media (and perhaps a secret luggage lifter) in his 2016 campaign?
Also. thank you for flying Church of England, cake or death?
Freudian Slip?
Nice. Very subtle humor.
Well played sir, as it were.
