Yeah, can’t really say that I agree with the SI finding, but its not like it was Romney’s gaffe, someone else said it and since Nicklaus endorsed him (I believe) he’s talking it up. Not a Stupid Republican Idea, but rather a Stupid Sports Magazine Idea.
I’m relieved to know that Romney, if elected, will keep up the regular Sports Illustrated briefings.
Yeah, that makes more sense; Romney was at a campaign stop with Nicklaus.
It really sounds like The Tick 
Agreed. Jack was a great golfer, not a great athlete.
Yup – I’m sure Babe Ruth, big belly and all, was more of an athlete than Jack. As was just about anyone who ever made it into the big leagues of baseball, basketball, football, or hockey.
Arnold Palmer was the greatest athlete of the 20th century. The delicious beverage that bears his name continues to have a positive impact on my life well into the 21st century.
Good point. I sailed right past that. I was just operating on the theory of, you want a golfer who’s an athlete, I’d point more toward Woods – who’s friggin’ ripped – than I would to Nicklaus.
Hey, at least he can name a magazine he reads, unlike some Republicans we might mention.
Not fair! Sarah would read more magazines if her lips didn’t get tired!
To be fair, Highlights is a tough read.
According to Todd “Legitimate Rape” Akin, his opponent Claire McCaskill is not “ladylike” enough for public office.
I can’t believe I’m defending Todd Akin, but what he said was that she was “more ladylike” in the 2006 debate, and that this was a sign that she feel threatened.
Still a stupid thing to say, but not quite as stupid.
She must have rooted for Goofus…
Is Todd Akin intentionally doing a public burnout since he will never hold office again?
Except the Swimsuit Edition briefing because those women are not wearing their Magic Undies[sub]tm[/sub].
It’s Missouri. He’ll probably be the next governor.
I don’t know that it’s any less stupid; I think it’s worse.
What the hell is a “ladylike” campaign supposed to look like, and why should it somehow be something McCaskill should aspire to? If being aggressive in a debate isn’t ladylike, would he be OK with a male opponent saying the same things? If being “ladylike” and less aggressive ultimately means McCaskill loses, how is that a good idea from her point of view? His statement reads like he’s worried about getting beat up on the playground by a girl, and he’s trying to salvage some manly bravado by pointing out that real girls shouldn’t play rough.
Akin remains an unrepentant sexist douchebag, film at 11.
Apparently, this is the voter fraud the republicans have been warning us about.
“The move came after the Palm Beach County, Fla., elections supervisor discovered 108 potentially fraudulent registration forms submitted by the GOP consulting firm, including suspected phony signatures and home addresses that matched those of a gas station, a medical building and a Land Rover dealership.
NBC News has learned that two other Florida counties, Santa Rosa and Okaloosa, have also reported possible fraudulent registration forms submitted by the firm, including apparent dead people being registered as new voters. Prosecutors in two counties are investigating possible voter fraud by the GOP consulting firm, officials said.”
See? They were right to defund ACORN, because they might have registered fraudulent Republicans too!
