Cheating is truly what the GOP does best, but there is, finally, more awareness of it. They do exhibit a lot of incompetency lately, and Pres. Obama & team are very skilled.
They have lost the element of surprise that allowed the SCOTUS debacle in 2000. Their performances like the Tomahawk Chop disgrace are quickly picked up, at least by MSNBC (who recently beat FOX a couple of nights in a row for the first time).
That’s awesome.
He turned pro in 1996.
Five years (well, four and a half, since he started in August).
I think it’s Storm Large’s best song. Second best is probably My Vagina is 8-Miles Wide, which would have been a great video to post in this thread back in June during the Great Michigan Vagina Controversy. Storm is a local legend.

A consultant for Todd “Legitimate Rape” Akin says they won’t run her candidate out of the race, because he’s got resolve, like…
Wow. That’s just…wow.
Akin is the gift that just keeps on giving, it seems;
[QUOTE=TPM]
Gender discrimination in compensation has been illegal in the United States since the passage of the 1963 Equal Pay Act. But in video provided by Sen. Claire McCaskill’s campaign, Akin responded to a question about the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act – which made it easier for workers to sue over unequal pay – by suggesting that employers shouldn’t even be barred from paying women less in the first place.

Akin remains an unrepentant sexist douchebag, film at 11.
I’m not sure if it comes under the heading of SRIOTD or not …
David Rivera (R) congressman from FL, apparently funded the campaign of a candidate in the Democratic primary in an attempt to run against someone *other *than Joe Garcia. The woman who is alleged to have served as the middleman, funneling cash in large amounts into Sternad’s hands for the purchase of targeted flyers, has disappeared.
The man had previously been investigated by the FBI, the IRS, and several local and the state police departments.
And he and Senator Marco Rubio are best buds…
Divide and conquer. That might be sleazy as all get out, but I wouldn’t call it stupid.
Well, the money allegedly came from a Republican, and since the scandal broke, two third-party polls have shown said Republican trailing the challenger by 9 points, and said Republican previously beat the exact same challenger in 2010 by over 9 percentage points.
So I think it counts as a stupid idea. Allegedly.
It’s also (I think) illegal.
Details. 
Funding the other guy isn’t illegal. I believe he is in trouble because he didn’t declare the cash (which is harder to do when it is actual cash in plain white envelopes).
Also, many states have campaign laws againt giving campaign donations in someone else’s name. Since he used a middleman he could have crossed that line as well.

I believe the answer will be “yes” for weeks to come
This was a very clumsy attempt, but with guys like Karl Rove running super-PACs with tens of millions of dollars in the petty cash fund, isn’t it likely that there are some stealth GOP political prospects, some still in college, being groomed right now to run as Dems in a much more subtle and effective way?
Or a similar program with judges — work your way up as a moderate, get appointed to a federal bench, and then start ruling as directed by the money people?
