I’m glad you Texans have this doofus back on the ranch. (Huff Po): Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) said Tuesday that he agrees with Maine Gov. Paul LePage’s (R) suggestion earlier this week that any unemployed “able-bodied people out there” need to “get off the couch” and get a job. “If folks are just, you know, [...]

Iowa was almost overcome by a wave of frothy, racist, homophobic, womb-controlling Santorum last night, but in the end (which came finally around 2:30 AM ET) 8 votes materialized for Mittens to claim he held back the surge.
