Ten Post Round-Up: Bad News Ahead

Last week, I did my level best to stay out of the political fray, but to no avail.  So, I officially give up.  And, since our politicians aren’t giving up, I guess I might as well just dive in and go for the gold.

Today’s Ten Post Round-Up is designed to show you just how bad this election show has gotten.  But, before we go any further, I should first let Uncle Jay explain the news (the word for the day is: lipstick).

You know things are bad when:

• Your go-away party is bigger than your welcome home party.

• Your financial guru won’t vouch for your tax plans.

• Your running mate is being labeled as worse than the guy you are planning to replace.

• You claim to be the “Party of Lincoln” in order to woo African-American voters, but some of your more outspoken members keep doing things to remind black folks precisely why they don’t vote for your party.

• Websites are popping up having to debunk all the crap hitting the fan in this election.

• The man, notorious for being a lying scumbag, calls you out on national television–for lying (and he’s supposed to be on your side).

• A local newspaper, formerly notorious for supporting all things Republican (and/or conservative), actually has the gonads to come out against you.

• Doctors are questioning your ethics for not fully disclosing your medical records.

• A comedienne can make your running mate look she’s the one who’s copying her.

• The fact that you are Caucasian allows you to get away with things that you would never let slide if the candidate were African-American.
