The Republicans want to turn the 800 pound gorilla the room - the economy - into the elephant in the room. See post #11. That is their error. It is established in post #9 that the economy is the elephant in the room. This is because it was alluded to in post #1 that the 800 pound gorilla - Barack Obama - and the elephant in the room - George W. Bush - cancel each other out. Something must fill the vacuum that was created when the 800 pound gorilla in the room and the elephant in the room cancel each other out – the economy which is the proxy 800 pound gorilla in the room that the Republicans in their shortsightedness want to turn into the elephant in the room. See post #11. Therefore, if the elephant in the room is the economy then what is the 800 pound gorilla in the room? Barack Obama!
I think the folks at CERN want to have a word with you.
Let me tell ya.
Could I get a translator?
Reading this thread gives me dem old Kozmik blues again.
The thing is, an elephant is going to beat a gorilla hands down. They’re bigger, they’re stronger, and they’re meaner. So it’s not even a contest.
Not to worry. Fox news has Already started to manipulate graphics to fool folks into thinking that the unemployment rate has stayed flat instead of dropping. So even if unemployment plummets in the next several months, Fox news will be on the case, making sure that the truth does not get out.
The winning strategy for the Republicans over the next 10 months will be to make sure the economy does not recover.
They’ll ask Dick Cheney to crawl out of his hole to appear on Fox News.
Sounds doable.
Your use of metaphors is about as tortured as a one-legged man in an ass-kicking competition swinging a dead cat that was rode hard and put up wet after being three sheets to the wind and passing out wolf tickets until someone opened up a can o’ whoop-ass.
Of course, hasn’t that been their goal all along?

The OP is the same one who did the opposite of Groundhog Day. I think we can say that (s)he fails at any kind of comparison.
Actually, I think Romney will be the elephant, and Obama will be the donkey. I don’t know about any gorillas, unless Trump really does do a third party run.
So who’s the albatross, again?
I don’t give a shit as long as I get to be the race car.
What flavor?
No fair! You were the race car last time. You can be the Top Hat.
Euphonious Polemic, who is smarter than Mitch McConnell, had the insight that the 2012 election will be about the economy, which is the elephant in the room.
No. No one want to talk about the elephant in the room.

Dum-dum just admitted that Obama is the 800 pound gorilla in the room.
OK then let’s sum up:
The elephant is the economy. Which apparently nobody wants to talk about. Except that everyone is talking about it.
President Obama is the 800 pound Gorilla. Because he’s so powerful.
Vinyl Turnip is NOT the race car, as he was the race car last time.
Mitch McConnell is a Dum-dum and is even stupider than me, which is saying something.

Bryan Ekers is an albatross

BrainGlutton is the bartender
That only leaves one possibility: Kozmik is the walrus. Koo koo ka choo.
Anyone who’s played mafia with me knows I’m the ultimate bartender, dagnabit.
