PAUL BEGALA: It's a tough race. It's a tough year. Come on, [Obama's] not going to win Pennsylvania by ten or eleven or thirteen or whatever he won by last time. You know, Reihan might be right, but he's not. This is a bad move for Romney. It's going to disappoint frankly all those people who were counting on him in places where he actually might have a chance like Iowa, Colorado, Florida. Pennsylvania has not gone for a Republican for president since Reagan and Bush, and when - Bush Sr., not Bush Jr. - when Bush Sr. carried Pennsylvania, he also carried California and Illinois and New Jersey - places where they would hunt Romney down with dogs.
I thought about starting a thread, a non-partisan one, with voting for who'd you most like to see tied to the rail of a tramp steamer and wave good-bye to.
While Begala deserves a spot, it's more for that crack I remember from his Clinton days, the one where he said: "the problem with Republicans is that their mother's didn't breastfeed them".
