Especially with the rather disturbing polling news (which I haven&#8217;t heard any Republicans calling bullshit over, so they must be correct). Not only has our boy Mitt taken a national lead in two polls (4% Pew, 2% PPP), but women have also apparently fallen out of love with Obama (or a lot of them have, anyway).  The Pew poll had Obama&#8217;s 18-point lead with women evaporating completely, while PPP has it down from 16 points to 6.  And polling in the swing states shows Obama&#8217;s leads shrinking in them, too.  So that kinda sucks, and doesn&#8217;t bode well for November.  <\/p>\n<p>Here I thought we&#8217;d all agreed that Romney sucks and you&#8217;d have to be an idiot to vote for him, and now it&#8217;s starting to look like he&#8217;s going to get elected (this may seem premature to you, but, I assure you, I&#8217;ve seen SU blow enough leads in my time that I can tell when things are turning to shit early in the third quarter &#8211; or second half, depending on the sport).  <\/p>\n<p>Just pray the filthy Republicans (channeling my inner Mike Malloy there) don&#8217;t take the Senate, because between them and the DINOs us 47% slackers are in for some hard times.  At least we&#8217;ll finally be done with Joe Lieberman (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/article\/connecticut-senate-race-has-democrat-struggling-sea-of-blue\">although it looks like CT is gonna stick us with a damn Republican<\/a>). <\/p>\n<p>In other news, Jerry Sandusky was sentenced today.  Facing over 300 years in prison, he was let off pretty easy, only getting 30 to 60.  That means he&#8217;ll be eligible for parole when he&#8217;s 98.  The big question is, will his wife wait for him?  Maybe she and Susan Poland can get an apartment together near the prison.  Kind of a Golden Girls thing.<\/p>\n<p>On the bright side (for them), I bet they&#8217;re all Republicans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It may be Tuesday, but it sure feels like a Monday.
