A Chicken In Every Pot

.

So how is chicken-bartering Sue Lowden doing in her Nevada Senate bid?  Not good.

Pre chicken:  45% of the vote in the GOP primary.

Post chicken:  26% of the vote.

Ouch.  For Lowden’s sake, we can only hope she didn’t count her chickens before they hatched.

    so maybe there IS hope after all, maybe some of the Republicans really haven’t taken complete leave of their senses?

  2. Marlene_in_Ohio says:

    I’m starting to see a theme with these people (Lowden,Paul,Palin). They all look backwards and all they see is a rosy “Good ole days” outlook. Were they all raised on daily doses of nostalgia? They also seem to lack any apathy or even curiosity about anyone outside their own family or community.

    She suffers from Crainiorectal Inversion!

  4. Greg says:

    Janine you should really be a little more sensitive about
    Craniorectal Inversion I myself sometimes suffer from this
    rather awkward condition when confronted by Reagan-nites.

  5. I hate ignorance, and it is particularly evident in the last two comments on this post. You don’t know Sue Lowden. You don’t understand what she has experienced. And then you spread vicious rumors about a medical condition she just doesn’t have!

    It is Craniorectal INSERTION….not inversion!

    Jeeze people….a little research is all that I ask.

  6. Linzloo08 says:

    Heh I hope this comes back to bite her in the butt in november!

  7. JuliaAdair says:

    I believe she is already experiencing some difficulties. something about an RV, worth well over 100,000. I was not paying attention but i gather the details are murkey, and there could be some illegalities there.

    she should have stuck with bartering those chickens. or invert that cranium back into the rectal region and keep it there.

  8. janine says:

    And yet, Michael, I meant Craniorectal inversion…..:)

  9. The only thing that is sad about this, is that my fellow Nevadans may well choose to vote for Danny Tarkanian in the Republican primary; thus robbing Harry Reid of the historical opportunity to run against Sarah Palin’s artificially blond twin.

  10. Greg says:

    Mr. Michael Chase, I should know weather or not I have my head
    up my ass and I will choose weather or not I wish to be ignorant
    on any particular day.

  11. Greg, I hope you realize that my comments were meant, um, tongue in cheek.

  12. Greg says:

    Mr. Chase, but of course.
    I never take much of anything seriously, I was just looking for
    something funny to say and as you can see I couldn’t find it.
