Yeah, apparently there were people who were excited about Dukakis and Kerry too. Some folks have a 'gift' for psyching themselves up about even the most pathetic things.

Which is about how many people will vote for anyone their TV tells them to, as long as they aren't uppity black men.

Good lord, those comments at the last link that Paul posted... those are just flippin' *awful*! Here's one of them:

***
I don't want to pay taxes for these lazy people in the Southeast sitting around waiting for a social security check! Or for their "community" services -- we all know that this is code for welfare for one specific ethnicity! Or for Obamacare, so that suddenly "entitled" "underprivileged" people are crowding my doctor's office lengthening my wait time!

Mitt knows how to turn things around, and he knows how to make the uneducated masses pay for it without noticing. We can sell them the abolishing of the EPA as "freedom" and get rid of controls for air and water that cost us billions each year, and sell cutting taxes for us and our firms as a general tax cut that "creates jobs". We need a man like Mitt to do this, we would not be able to achieve this on our own after all that happened in 2008/9. The public is not trusting us business people anymore.

@4: that comment looks "ironic", but poorly done.

There's an insomniac joke in there somewhere, but I can't find it.

@1 my father was excited about Kerry, then the football game came on.

In all honesty, romniac.com was just put up about 2 - 3 weeks ago, so we're still getting started!
