It was a lot of people there. It was a diverse, good rally. The question remains if the people of Arizona are fatigued of McCain.

Rallies are pointless. Its pretty obvious barring the Big One and ten million Angelenos fleeing to Arizona, John McCain can be elected until he’s 105.

Not only powerful, but diverse! Well, now you’re talking! So, there were some _very_ old white people there, as well as just old white people? Were they gathered in groups, more or less, the black Romney enthusiasts all lumped together, maybe next to the transgendered Romneyites? Latinos offering the Arpaio enthusiasts a big steaming bowl of _pendejo_?

Sounds like your politics have changed drastically in four years. Romney is far closer to Hillary than he is to Cruz or Carson on almost every issue (especially if you discount the dramatic flip-flops Romney was forced to pretend to in order to win the 2012 nomination).

Perhaps, but how do we know that the King of Mayonaisse is as bland as he pretended, and the real deal surfaced?

And is there any way we can seize control of Ted Cruz long enough to shave his head, make sure it is not decorated with numbers?

Hey, I don’t really believe that, or anything, but I would feel a bit better.
