A mix of secessionist South Carolina, Southern religious intolerance, Fox News and a few of the low level clowns in the GOP primary!
I watched the entire thing and when it ended one thing did jump out at me more than anything else.
Each and every time Herman Cain spoke it was a wind of callous, nasty, mean, foul, hate filled, right-wing Christian swill. The ugliness of all he stood for moved me back in my chair. I was thinking back, this guy makes the perennial running Alan Keyes look like a Rachel Maddow. We also learned he calls Pro Lifers who draw the line at rape and incest pro abortion and pro choice. He is a foul ugly son of a witch, so I should have not been so surprised on how beloved he would be in South Carolina. Keep in mind no one who has lost South Carolina GOP primary has made it to the White House in over 30 years.
Rick Santorum came off as some as a hybrid Christian jock. There is something wrong with his body, or his head. He is somehow geometrically challenged, like Snooki but more linier. Every time he spoke I wondered who he could have got elected to the Senate in Pennslvania. Sure you get that kind of silly person in Mississippi, and South Carolina.
Pawlenty blended into the background I didn’t notice him.
New Mexico Governor Johnson must have got his schedule mixed up and went to the Republican primary debate rather than the Democratic one. But there are not Democratic primaries. I guess he had no choice but to go to the GOP. He seemed as out of place there as a White heterosexual liberal is in Texas.
Ron Paul played the dizzy chick well. I especially enjoyed his answer on gay marriage. That government should have nothing to do with marriages! Bring on the Bigamy! No alimony or child support! And you know how the Right enjoys comparing gay marriage to marrying chickens and ducks, well this is the real thing from Ron Paul. And snorting crank and shooting heroin walking down the isle with your goat. But I must say that when pressed he fell back on his answer to most every question that he knows is too crazy to answer, he would let the state of South Carolina decide how many wives, husbands, goats, ducks, chickens and children one could marry at a time. Ron Paul, gotta love the dizzy chick…
And the two craziest nutcakes in the race, Bachmann and Trump were not even there. This can only get better and better. Herman Cain should now beat Donald Trump in the polls. So the top three contenders for the GOP will be Cain, Trump and Huckabee. All of which, along with Bachmann can win in both Iowa and South Carolina and wrap it up! Hear! Here!
