Yep, he's done for.  Hillary by a 20 point landslide.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

By the way, did we all see that Clarissa/Sabrina is Johnson's CT campaign chair?

Won't shiiling for the gay abortions candidate make it harder for her to get parts in evangelical movies?

My guess is that's what happens when you realize it's futile making even the usual intellectually dishonest arguments in support of your position, but just can't ever give up on your position.  You just go into mindless troll safe mode.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny.

QuoteAleppo 2.0: Gary Johnson can't name single foreign leader
By Victor Morton - The Washington Times - Updated: 8:21 p.m. on Wednesday, September 28, 2016

Call it Aleppo 2.0.

Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson repeatedly blanked when asked Wednesday by MSNBC host Chris Matthews "who's your favorite foreign leader?"

In a memory freeze lasting almost a minute, Mr. Johnson could not name a single foreign leader without prompting by his running mate, William Weld.


"I guess I'm having 'an Aleppo moment' in the former president of Mexico," said Mr. Johnson.

The former governor of New Mexico, an admitted marijuana smoker, embarrassed himself in an interview earlier this month, asking "and what is Aleppo?" when asked what he would do about the bloody Syrian-Russian offensive against that city.

As Mr. Johnson acknowledged forgetting a name, an incredulous Mr. Matthews said, "I'm giving you the whole world; anybody in the world you like. Anybody."

Mr. Johnson repeated "the former president of Mexico," prompting Mr. Matthews to ask "which one?" to Mr. Johnson's further stammer.  :lol:

Mr. Weld then tried to help out his ticket-mate, saying "Fox? Zedillo?" at which point Mr. Johnson said he meant Vicente Fox, who was president of Mexico from 2000 to 2006 and whom Mr. Johnson called "terrific."

Even funnier when you watch it--

Yeah, I'm not really feeling the Johnson...

Seriously, though, I wish the party had made Weld the Presdizzle candidate instead of Johnson.  I mean, I'm still voting for him, but Weld is obviously the better of the pair for the job.
