Salon.com regarding today's WI primary

"Bowling for votes in Wisconsin

All the remaining 2008 contenders -- except Barack Obama -- indulge in an artery-busting blue-collar orgy of fried fish, bratwurst and cheese."

The title and subtitle alone give me the nudge I need to decide firmly for Obama instead of Hillary. I'm so fucking sick of that stereotype.

1. Another day of mispronounced and misspelled Wisconsin Cities!!

Actually we are having cheddar brats for supper. LOL
Two votes for Obama from this household.

2. What a load of hoey

Obama -- who is trying to attract Milwaukee professionals and Madison progressives who find those images hokey -- rallied his supporters at the Midwest Airlines Center, a convention hall that also hosted an auto parts trade show that morning.

He filled campus buildings across the state with students, white collar and blue collar workers alike. Visited the Janesville GM plant. Good grief, he has the endorsement of fucking blue-collar unions. Where did Salon dredge this idiot up from?

I'm with you. That stereotype is BS.

well I'm probably a really bad person for how happy that would make me

4. Goes to show Tommy still has a dumb sense of humor

5. Tommy is dumber in the head than a hog is in the ass

6. Good lord, dare you to go to GD-P and not be insulted by the shit they're saying about WI

7. They didn't just touch on the stereotypes, they whacked them all with a stick.

The FIB talk (I hate that term), Laverne & Shirley, giant Polish eagles on top of buildings, the country's oldest bowling alley...

Yuck. I must be too stupid to finish typing this pos

8. Let's hope the landslide, today, grants John Nichols' fondest wish. Link:
