Guess what everyone? It’s time for another presidential election.\u00a0 Didn’t we just finish this crap?\u00a0 Well, with a scant 16 months left before the 2016 presidential election, it’s time for CON-A-THON 2016<\/strong>… and we’ve already got 16 Republican presidential candidates. That’s right! 16!!!!<\/strong> You’d think that all this choice would be a good thing. But we’re talking about the modern Republican party. We’re not sure who coined the term, but the most accurate description of this collection of colossal egos has to be the Republican Clown Car <\/strong>(They’re also available for birthday parties and bar mitzvahs). Early polls are indicating that Jeb “Don’t Call Me Bush” Bush and perennial blowhard and teabagger favorite Donald Trump, are leading the polls. But if you peruse our archives for Con-a-thon 2012, you’ll see that there was a new flavor-of-the-week back then, too. One week it was Newt Gingrich; the next it was Herman Cain; and the next it was Rick Santorum, who apparently hasn’t learned his lesson that he’s not appealing to a wide swath of Americans. Oh well…this circus and extraordinary waste of money is sure to be amusing for the next 16 months. Really???!!! Another 16 months of this shit???!!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n
