Friday Fratricide, the GOP Debate Circular Firing Squad edition

I sure hope the Obama campaign pays Wolf Blitzer a bonus. His performance on their behalf last night was well orchestrated and brilliantly executed. He walked those four jimokes down the garden path and they turned on each other like rabid dogs.

Best line from the night? "I'm Mitt Romney and I approve this message that I haven't actually seen." Sheesh, what a putz.

Pundette has Newt fatigue. I imagine there's going to be a lot of that going around, egged on by the GOP Establishment.

Stacy McCain says Santorum "kicked butt." I'm not so sure. He comes across to me as angry, petty, and mean-spirited. Plus there's that whole "lost his last election by 22 points" thing. Not exactly a ringing endorsement from his home state, eh?

Somewhere David Axelrod is smiling.

The rest of us? Not so much.

That had to be the most pathetic "debate" yet. More like a circular firing squad. Hell, after watching Newt complain about Mitt's wealth, Mitt mock Newt's consulting fees, Santorum whine peevishly, and Paul answer every question with "gold standard!", I'm thinking of taking a second look at that Obama fellow. At least he acts presidential. Those four turkeys belong back in kindergarten.

Is it too much to ask for the GOP to put forth a Real Candidate? Are these four bozos our A Team?

Shudder.

Meanwhile down in Georgia, a backwoods country judge breathed new life into the Birther sideshow yesterday. Because that's just what we need, more irrelevant posturing that can only reflect badly on Obama's opponents.

Now Barry gets to again paint the Republicans as total nutjobs by building up whackos like Jerome Corsi and Orly Taitz into convenient strawmen, who he'll then whack into the next county.

The American public believes he's already answered the question. Right now that's what matters, and we have bigger fish to fry. Give it up.

There's a video making the rounds of Joe Biden faking an Indian accent during a campaign event in New Hampshire. He starts out mocking credit card call center employees, then catches himself. So I click on over to YouTube to see what the fuss is about, and the first thing that comes up is this comment:

I don't see the issue here. He impersonates a vice president every waking second and no one gives a shit.

I spewed coffee all over my monitor!
