The primary process is fucked up. A national primary would be too costly for independent campaigns unbeholden to huge financial interests to run, but a rotating primary that gives two different states “first in the nation” preference every four years would help in eliminating my seething hatred for those entitled hicks. I could then hate on every state, if I live for 100 more years. (Science, make this happen!)
I would’ve ragged on New Hampshire too, but they are pretty much just a northern suburb of my native Massachusetts, except with more underfunded schools and dirt roads. But they allow the sale of fireworks, so they’re cool.
“Rubbing corn on it” is a euphemism begging for a meaning. Let’s do this America! Nothing about poo though. Let’s keep it clean-ish.
No one cares about my opinions on the caucus results, but I’d like to say that I’m glad that even the dum-dum Iowa Republicans saw through Romney’s phony baloney schtick. However, Huckabee is a grown man who believes in magic and other assorted evangelical voodoo.

That’s hilarious.
And I agree about a rotating first primary/caucus/circle jerk. I live in Oregon where the primary is only going to matter if for some weird reason the nomination has not been locked up by February. Our primary is in May. MAY! At which point I start writing in Iggy Pop or Amy Fischer.

They should also hold them in states where people actually live like California, New York and Florida.

Florida can suck my nuts.
I’m talkin’ ’bout the issues.
