UNLIMITED GOP 2012 PRIMARY CANDIDATE THREAD

[Jenne]

Lewis Black, in his usual, calm, rational manner, discusses the GoP candidates.

Sarah Palin doesn't exist. 

Yes, that was HILARIOUS!!!

[Jenne]

Anyone else have a sneaking suspicion that "Fat Fuck"'s reticence might be because perhaps he's got shit he doesn't want out in public...that once exposed, the edipose tissues will...astound and amaze Amurricah...and not in a good way?  Sorta how Romney's underwhelming everyone, Palin is dazzling with her bullshit, Bachmann needs to return the guano to its original batcave, and Perry's been revealed as the "dumber-than-dubya"?

Herman Cain's been saying that he's a great candidate because he was so successful as CEO of Godfather's Pizza.

He has yet, I note, to release any financial information showing he was successful.

A look, here:

Speaking of Cain, guess who's on board with his platform?

Sherrif Joe!

Cain, working to appeal solely to the id of the GOP base, is now meeting with one of the movement's folk heroes: Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the semi-competent cartoon lawman who not long ago cynically trained the entirety of his office's resources on constantly persecuting immigrants...

Ok, this is getting a bit difficult to parse.  I of course mean HERMAN Cain, and not BAD ASS MOTHERFUCKER Cain.

He's meeting with all of them but hasn't endorsed any of them yet.

Yes, but how many other candidates have said they want to electrocute and shoot all illegal immigrants?

Just Herman.  Hermain Cain.



Wait a sec....

Holy fuck.

Pretty soon, we're going to wake up in a book that's self-aware.

DID SOMEONE SAY SOMETHING ABOUT BOOKS?

http://slatest.slate.com/posts/2011/10/18/herman_cain_fec_filing_shows_cain_paid_campaign_cash_to_t_h_e_ne.html

Bloomberg went digging through the GOP presidential candidate's FEC filings and found that Cain's campaign spent more than $36,000 buying copies of his autobiography, This is Herman Cain! My Journey to the White House, and other books and pamphlets he authored to hand out to his supporters. What's more, the Republican campaign bought the books from Cain's own motivational speaking company, T.H.E. New Voice Inc.

CLOSE YOUR EYES, DOK, WE'RE ABOUT TO HIT A PILE OF WORD SALAD.

They all buy back their books.  The NLT best seller list puts the little dagger symbol next to any book that was mass-purchased.  How do you think they get bestsellers with a fan base that won't read?

The big deal isn't that Cain's campaign is mass buying Cain's autobiography.  The big deal is that Cain's campaign is mass buying Cain's autobiography from a company that Cain owns.

between that, Donald Trump announcing his candidacy during climax of The Apprentice, and Palin collecting campaign donations and then deciding not to run, the 2012 election is turning out to be quite a venture for entrepreneurs.
