The GOP Sitcom Just Got Serious
The GOP Sitcom Just Got Serious. With Justice Scalia gone it’s no longer if my candidate _________ doesn’t get the nomination I a) won’t vote, or b) I will write in my favorite. It’s if we don’t get a GOP president we’re screwed and not just plain old screwed, we’re screwed big time. It’s time to man or woman up, hold your nose and vote for the GOP candidate, regardless who it is.
