Tortured points of light: Said former President George H.W. Bush, “I do think it’s time for the party to get behind Governor Romney. … Kenny Rogers sang, ‘It’s time when to hold ‘em and time when to fold ’em.’ Well, I think it’s time for people to all get behind this good man.”
One couldn’t ask for a more powerful endorsement, just pretend it’s all a dream.

As today’s Wisconsin Republican primary gets underway, even Mitt isn’t all that enthusiastic about the whole presidential run, crying most-unexcitedly on Sunday, the eventual winner “will probably be me.”
Thrills to the bone!

Well beyond Wisconsin (and beyond a whole-lot-of-shit), Sarah Palin will co-host NBC’s ‘Today‘ show this morning, but only reportedly for just one hour.
Palin will face-off her ‘gotcha’ nemesis Katie Couric, who at the same time is pulling a guest-hosting gig on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on a way-‘nother channel.
NBC must suck real bad.
Matt Lauer’s already had enough, knocking the nit-twit half-time Alaska governor during a preview — politics brings out the stupid.
A useful sentiment/view from Firedoglake:

Of course, Sarah Palin is a perfect fit as part of the Today Show’s Very Special Freak Week with additional guests including currently-on-a-media-blitz bulk baby pooper Octomom, human cartoon Nicki Minaj, and Kim Kardashian who is a whore.

Well, that wraps it fairly nice.

Meanwhile, Ann Romney opens her mouth to try and explain why her boring, mutil-faced husband is such a lackluster asshole.
Via ABC News:

Ann Romney’s remarks came during an interview with Baltimore radio station WBAL, during which the host asked her, “And one of the things, Ann Romney, that folks talk about with your husband, Mitt Romney, and I’ve seen him in casual conversation-He comes off very smooth and okay.
But sometimes he comes off stiff.
Do you have to fight back some criticism, like ‘My husband isn’t stiff, OK?’”
Laughing, Ann Romney responded, “Well, you know, I guess we better unzip him and let the real Mitt Romney out because he is not!”

US peoples don’t like to laugh all that much, especially with rich dudes prancing around trying to be just regular guys — comes off as creepy and one should contact a physician if a non-stiffness lasts more than four hours.
