Hey, it's primary day again! Let's take a look at the losers Sarah Palin is backing this time.

Courtesy of the political Albatross's Facebook page:  

Friends, there are important primaries across the country tomorrow (Okay obviously this was posted late yesterday.)  with many good grassroots conservatives running against Washington insiders, and they need our help! In two states in particular, please help us send conservative fighters Chris McDaniel from Mississippi and T.W. Shannon from Oklahoma to the U.S. Senate. America's future depends on good leaders like Chris and T.W. who will fight for what is best about America! - Sarah Palin

Now there are a number of interesting primaries taking place today, but let's focus on these two since Palin has put her cottage cheese ass on the line again.

As of now it appears that T.W. Shannon is not exactly setting Oklahoma on fire with his campaign, and is currently trailing James Lankford by several points.

However Oklahoma is another state that mandates a runoff if no candidate can reach 50% so it is somewhat likely that this will not be over until later in the summer.

Speaking of runoff elections, currently the race in Mississippi is a toss up between Palin favorite Chris McDaniel and Thad Cochran.

Thad Cochran has even appealed to support from the African American demographic in Mississippi to help him against the more radical Tea Party favorite.

In response, conservative organizations are organizing groups of poll watchers to intimidate the black voters in a state where Jim Crow laws and lynchings are still burned into the memories of the African American community.

So the question is will these tactics intimidate black voters into staying home? Or will they anger them into turning out in droves?

To sum up, it looks like Palin may, or may not, get at least one victory in Mississippi, and the race in Oklahoma will likely go into extra innings.

It is hard to put either of these into the winners column for Palin, so her endorsement scoreboard still records far more misses than it does hits. 

But hey, who needs to be good at political prognostication when you have that amazing Rainbow Bay Lodge money to fall back on.

    You know what I found interesting in SP's FB Rainbow Bay Lodge ad? She is talking about the "indescribably delicious" halibut!
    Please, correct me if I am wrong, but halibut are indeed deliciously fatty overgrown pelagic/salt water flounders, and that lodge is advertised as being on a lake (i.e. fresh water?). Unless there is an unstated option to fly guests out to saltwater fishing at additional costs, the writer of this piece of advertising is highly deceptive...oh never mind... it's SP's FB page. As I said, please correct me, if I am wrong.

      Wikipedia: Halibut is a flatfish, genus Hippoglossus, from the family of the right-eye flounders (Pleuronectidae). Other flatfish are also called halibut. The name is derived from haly (holy) and butt (flat fish), for its popularity on Catholic holy days.[1] Halibut are demersal fish which live in the North Pacific and the North Atlantic oceans. They are highly regarded food fish.

      North Pacific and North Atlantic are OCEANS.

      "Rainbow Bay Resort is located only 15 miles from the Halibut rich waters of Lower Cook Inlet of the North Pacific where we offer our fisherman the opportunity to fish salt water for this great eating fish. "

      "We also own and operate our own 56' halibut vessel that is perfectly suited for daily as well as overnight stays. If you desire to bring home some nice halibut filets this is something that cannot be missed."

      I wonder how much the lodge charges to filet your fish (halibut, salmon, any and all of them) pack them and ship them back home for you. If the tab is $1,000. a day just for the basics, shipping & handling will be extra.

      A handjob for your halibut is indescribably handy, as far as happy endings go. Price is on menu. Customary tip of 20-40% is extra.

    The New York Times has a story on the Mississippi race, reporting, among other facts, your same account of the Tea Party jackals going into traditionally black polling areas to "poll watch" (read: intimidate). The Department of Justice has been notified.
    It's definitely a battle between the Old Guard, including John McCain, supporting Cochran, and the Tea Baggers, including the harridan that McCain elevated to the national stage, the one and only (we hope) Sarah Palin.
    The winner, either way, will be the Democratic Party.

    I don't want Sarah's endorsed candidates to win because that would make her look good. But on the other hand, Sarah's Tea Party candidates are so far to the right that if they do win, that makes it easier for the Democrats running against them. Think of Sharon Angle and Christine O'Donnell. Harry Reid would have had a much tougher race against a good Republican candidate instead of Sharon. Mixed feelings here. Let Sarah gloat now so the Democrats can win in the fall.

      12:01 Confused??? Palin slanders and abuses others for a living and has for years. All she has done since McCain lost is attack the President at every turn. She waits until he makes a decision about anything and then rags he should have done the opposite or he's lazy, or he's shuckin' & jivin', or he doesn't know world affairs cause he's 'only' a community organizer and on and on.

      We're sick of her crap and refuse to let her rag and rant without response. It's bad enough that there are enough stupid people out there who actually choose to believe her shit but letting her spew with impunity just ain't gonna happen.

      Sorry that you are unfortunate enough to be in her family or friend circle but it's a choice you made so suck it up buttercup and enjoy your life as a hatriot. Palin is mental. She needs help and needs to quit spewing hatred. We have enough problems to solve without having to put up with a paid rabble rouser inciting the stupid.
