we could really use more Screaming Lobster of Hope pics.

im struggling to recall why we call him the screaming lobster of hope

The Beltway wonders how an Obama administration will set the tone:

So Washington is left to imagine what cultural tone the Obamas will set. Will Bruce Springsteen perform at the inaugural — or maybe Yo-Yo Ma? Will Mr. Obama make frequent use of the presidential box at the Kennedy Center? (Laura Bush often went, accompanied by friends, while her husband stayed home.) Or will the Obamas, whose idea of fun is playing board games with their daughters, be the type to stay in at night, helping the kids with their homework? Will Hollywood stars take up residence in the Lincoln Bedroom, the way they did during the Clinton years?

“He’s a cool cat,” said Christopher Buckley, the political humorist, “and I think he’s going to bring cool catness back, if it ever existed at the White House.”

im struggling to recall why we call him the screaming lobster of hope

I take credit for that moniker.

cuz he screamed a lot, looked like a lobster, and was the Man From Hope.

oh ok that makes sense

:(

Not at all surprised, given some of the things my wife's high school friends were spreading around Facebook.

Where are the other states?

Yeah, I've talked to a few Tennesseans and the general mood is somber and frightened. I think I should leave the jubilation at home for Thanksgiving.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi:
"I will try to help relations between Russia and the United States where a new generation has come to power, and I don't see problems for Medvedev to establish good relations with Obama who is also handsome, young and suntanned," he said.

nice

lol Italy, only yr pasta keeps you from being Spain

Further funnies:

McCain’s presidential bid has ended, but the fireworks from inside his former campaign continue to make news: evidence is mounting that senior adviser Randy Scheunemann wasn’t fired, as several internal sources had suggested, but the target of a deliberate whispering campaign.

...

Scheunemann, who was widely viewed as a supporter of former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, admitted people were trying to push him out of the campaign. But he said that Goldfarb, his ally, was incorrect when he told CNN that Scheunemann’s blackberry had been taken away — although he does admit that his e-mail account had been “temporarily” cut off.

Michael Goldfarb, a McCain press aide and Scheunemann ally, said that senior McCain aides were mad at Scheunemann — and wanted to fire him — but he insisted they stopped short of that, and instead simply turned off his campaign communication.

Goldfarb said Scheunemann was in the office on Saturday. He was, however, noticeably missing on election night when top aides to John McCain and Sarah Palin gathered in Phoenix, Arizona.

i'm trying to not say this in a sarcastic way, so.. i am a lot more thrilled about being able to shut the door & start digging out from the last eight years of the BUSH administration, rather than making it a thing about bill clinton.

RedState is a treat today:

Here's where I am on the House and Senate GOP leadership races.

The whole lot of them should be rounded up and hanged. Slowly.

uh

And apparently Operation Leper made it to the Glenn Beck show. By all means, draw more people in!

If this is the least sensitive thing the Poison Dwarf says about Obama, it'll be a miracle.

hahaha "Poison Dwarf"!

good lord. dear red state, the voters noticed that republicans fucked up the country when they were given power to run it. that is the problem. frankly the GOP bloodbath should've been worse. dems underperformed in a number of down ballot races, no one has run the numbers yet AFAIK, but some of the new voters obama brought in, only voted for obama & no one else on the ballot. this happened during the primaries as well.

Silvio Berlusconi (help·info) (born 29 September 1936) is an Italian politician, entrepreneur, real estate and insurance tycoon, bank and media proprietor, sports team owner and songwriter.

"Poison Dwarf" = mash up of "Poison Arrow" and "Sex Dwarf" = song of the year.

the year 1982

DURHAM RAISIN THE ROOF

Nov. 6, 2008 | Bill Kristol, "Fox News Sunday" -- Dec. 17, 2006

"If [Hillary Clinton] gets a race against John Edwards and Barack Obama, she's going to be the nominee. Gore is the only threat to her ... Barack Obama is not going to beat Hillary Clinton in a single democratic primary. I'll predict that right now."

bad campaign predictions http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2008/11/06/bad_prediction

Kristol forgot about caucuses!

I have to say I was very impressed with John Stewart the other night. He was very polite to Kristol whereas I could so easily have seen John just eviscerate him publicly.

one time he asked him if he was ever right abt anything

kristol is a goddamned idiot and you can take that to the bank. there is not a single thing he has ever said that panned out. if i walked indoors from a rainstorm covered in wet and shivering, and bill kristol was there, and then said, "what a terrible rainstorm we are having," i'd question as to whether or not it was actually raining outside. that is how terrible this person's ability to see things that exist is.

also this newsweek ch 3 about clinton is fascinating.

did stewart show clips of kristol coming on after kerry lost? he should've.

I still want to see the list, Bill! I wonder how obsessed with somebody you'd have to be to write an 81 page list of complaints. Even for people who I feel have wronged me in some way, I'd be really hard put to come up with anything more than maybe a five page list of grievances? And even five pages would be stretching it.
