   They’re counting on the psychopath vote being just a little larger than I think it is. Or that enough white older Americans have been driven mad by the confluence national decay, decades of trickle down propagandizing and the black man in the White House. Cynical bets but appropriate for the people making them. Today’s joke, as I’m sure you’ve seen, both of them at a NASCAR event. Mitt Romney and his veep, the guy who could be a good ‘before’ example of the young fellow getting sand kicked in his face at the beach before buying something the comic book ad was selling.

   I’m too cautious to start counting electoral votes, but I do think this illustrates how far into an ideological bubble has disappeared the Republican Party.

   The Republican strategists who aren’t in the bubble know that ideology doesn’t generally win American elections, but that bigotry does, so I expect a torrent of racism and racist dogwhistles for the next three months.
