That's because that concept is not mentioned in the article, or in fact anywhere.

Cue the facepalm pic... even if they ran together and by some act of the almighty FSM actually WON a few states, they're from the same state, and thus delegates couldn't vote for both of them. That's why Cheney is 'from' Wyoming.

Hey, has any one noticed that the Libertarian Party and Green Party nominees for President are not "on the same ticket"?

The Libertarians went and got a famous ex-Georgia congresscritter, so the Green Party, in a fit of jealousy, had to go out and get a cheaper, slightly broken ex-Georgia congresscritter.

Some of us Georgians have a knack for RTFA

RIF, subby.

Submitter, you dumbass.

/Admin who greenlit this, you're a dumbass too. Unless you greenlit it specifically so we could make fun of the submitter. In which case, job well done.

Has anyone pointed out the subby is a dumbass? Because I just wanted to make sure that was covered.

Hey, Nader and Bush ran on the same ticket back in 2000, so I don'r see how this is so controversial.

I would have sex with Cynthia McKinney

Yes, yes, subby was a little overzealous in his pursuit of a greenlight. But a Barr/McKinney ticket would have such a high level of concentrated crazy that I'd almost consider voting it, just to see what would happen.

Nurglitch:I would have sex with Cynthia McKinney

Shooting for that "crazy people have crazy sex" angle, eh?

Sure, I'd hit it. But I'd also put it out of its misery when I was finished.

I love Georgia Link (new window)

hey wait, has someone called the subby a dumbass yet?

 
CaptainSmartass 2008-07-11 10:10:20 PM  
Is it too late to call the submitter a dumbass? 'Cause I really really want to.

It's never too late to call submitter a dumbass.

McKinney - Giant Douche
Barr - Turd Sandwich
Fark - I'm going to grin and eat that turd sandwich, too. Chew up all that brown gooey goodness to add one more vote against the uncontrolled statism that is pissing off a larger fraction of the electorate every day. And for the record Bob Barr, I hate your stinking guts for your years of being congress's #1 drug warrior. Just because you're mouthing all the right words now doesn't make up for the damage you did and the lives ruined by your actions.

Saw Bob Barr on The Daily Show not too long ago. He is genuinely unsettling.

/subby's a dumbass
