THROW THEM AN ANVIL-The Fight’s Not Over. Run Up The Score On The Bastards!



By Soonergrunt September 20th, 2012

........ Obama looks to win, and win big. I heard on NPR this morning that he was up by eight points over Romney on average in current national polling, an advantage that none of the last three winning presidents enjoyed over their opponents at this stage of the election.

That’s great. It’s also not enough. I don’t want the President to win. I want him to utterly destroy the republican candidate and his Eddie Munster in a cheap suit-looking succubus as viable political candidates forever. To paraphrase Anne-Laurie from earlier today, throw the bastard an anvil. I want to see six more seats in the US Senate (but I’ll settle for three in this tough year) and I want to see Nancy Pelosi wield the Speaker’s gavel again, but I’d call it a win if we send 15 freshman teabaggers home with their balls in their hands.

I want to run up the motherfucking score.

dish out. Take back the House, expend the margin in the Senate and send the POTUS back to the WH with a commanding mandate. Kick the Repukes when they're down and then kick them again for good measure.
