A little Betty White just made my day!

well my dahlings, i don't agree with rollins at all... i'm no republican strategist but i feel deep in my bones (as creaky as they may be) that there are some surprises in store... mccain just may win yet... so hold on to your rosary beads... or tampons, as the case may be.

The Queen in her somewhat unusual way is right... it ain't over til the fat lady sings. Miz Norman is still on her way to the hall.

No, dear heart, I think Ed Rollins is for real. And David Gerkin didn't disagree with him.
We're about to see history, THE QUEEN. No, not the oldest man ever elected president....really!

Obama just needs to replay that Betty White schtick as commercials in Florida and he'll own that state in a landslide.

Queen, do you sleep well at night with your incredibly negative, pessimistic outlook on everything?
It's a good sign when the staunch repub analysts are looking gloomy...
And $273,000 on the help? Well, with 7 houses and a beauty queen as a wife, i'm surprised it's not more. But the boy in the poorly acted vid is cute!

The Queen- are you sure you aren't a republican operative paid to post non sense blatherings to various blogs.
The economy is tanking because of the Bush policies letting big oil and wall street run the show.
Mccain is no different from Bush.
To be gay, and want the ugly old troll and church lady elected is highly suspicious.

The Queen longs to be disembowled by Paul Borussard's killers, cause they're "real men," unlike the rest of us.
And as almost all of them are out of prison chances are she'll get her wish. Just hang out in the right dark alley, dear and a bloody painful demise is yours!

mr. e. dahling, i sleep quite well but thank you for asking...
ty, dahling, i'm no republican. anybody who knows me knows how ridiculous that idea is. but say a good word about a republican around here and you get spattered with mud and then some. anyway, did i say i wanted mccain elected? no. read again my post. It says I feel he will get elected. big difference. but then again i'm bound to be misinterpreted no matter what i say. what a world... what a world..
well, well, well... david ehrenstein... we were just talking about how hateful and vicious and threatening those republicans on the "road to nowhere" are as opposed to peace loving gay liberals who wouldn't think of wishing harm on somebody who opined differently than them...
no darling david, sorry to disappoint you but i don't hang out in dark alleys anymore and the few ex-convicts i've trafficked with have turned out to quite sweet and gentle but then again i must attribute that to my incredible charm. even so as whoopi goldberg once said i'd watch my back if i was you 'cause karma just might bite you in the ass.
well it looks like this election is bringing out the "haters" (to coin a well-worn gay phrase) on both sides of the coin.. "very interesting" as they used to say on laugh in ...

Betty White's comic timing hasn't lost a second! That lady is pure gold in front of an audience and I love that she always speaks her mind on current issues. If she was a bit younger I bet she'd be making appearances with Barack on the campaign trail.
Anyway she just tickles me pink. I hope she's with us for a long time to come. :)

Now really dear, who do you think you're kidding? We all know you long for President Palin. Just admit it and that raw throbbing asshole you call a mouth will feel everso much better.
Posted by: David Ehrenstein | Oct 10, 2008 5:44:10 PM
dahling darling dahling blah blah blah blah kill me.

The problem with Rollins is that he's bet on several wrong horses, including Mike Huckabee in the primaries (remember him?). However, McCain is probably the worst campaigner in history, so this one might be very easy to call.

God, I love Betty White.

I think the Queen's surprise has come: Palin guilty of abusing her power. Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is guilty of abuse of power, according to a probe by the state legislature.
The report is out, and it's not good for Palin/McCain.

LONG LIVE BETTY WHITE!!
JD, you summed up my sentiments beautifully.
