Join us at 6 pm tonight right here on Slog as Dominic Holden and I live-Slog the pre-Iowa Straw Poll Republican Debate. Every Republican debate so far has had a key player missing: Romney didn’t attend the first and third debates, Bachmann wasn’t at the first, and Huntsman hasn’t attended any so far. This time, Rick Perry isn’t taking part, so that means that all attention will be on Mitt (“I (Heart) Corporations”) Romney. Things probably won’t be as civil as the last debate, to be sure.
Will Pawlenty set himself on fire to remind voters that he’s still alive? Will Ron Paul finally admit that his entire career has been a very long practical joke as part of a deep-cover Candid Camera black ops mission? Will Michele Bachmann finally figure out where the camera is? Will Herman Cain pizza pizza pizza pizza pizza bigot? Join us tonight for all the answers!
does anyone know a bar where this will be shown?
I always want to do my best to be an informed citizen and voter – even if the issue-at-hand doesn’t directly affect me or those close to me, but holy fuck…
I can’t bring myself to watch this. I just can’t. It’s too goddamn depressing. Besides, I kinda know what these fucks have to say about just about anything. And even if I didn’t, I could guess. All I would need to do is to ask, “How would a rich and paid for, self-absorbed politician who makes his/her name by appealing to the shadowed reptilian corners of the brain (i.e., there is no one in this world other than me and my family who matters) answer that question?”
Can’t do it, guys. Sorry.
Oh my! I feel so sorry for the slogsters who have to spend a night listening to the bizarro pronouncements of the republicons. There’s something dirty just thinking about this debate.
@1 Every bar outside of Seattle city limits. Bring mace (scratch that because you don’t bring mace to a gun fight, pack the heat, honey).
