Tinfoil hat stuff in here

So, Mittens is dropping out of the 2016 Presidential race as of yesterday after briefly dropping into it. Story goes that he and Jeb Bush met last week. I'm going on record saying if Jebbie gets the nomination that he chooses none other then Mittens as his running mate. Jeb issued a statement saying something like Mitt is a patriot (?? - who isn't? or who is? Mittens was in France during Vietnam but I digress) and that maybe he'll be able to make a contribution in the future. Anyway that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Mitt was definitely shown the numbers and told he could be Sec. of Treasury or something

Jebs own mom thinks there has been enough Bushes as president. Does he really stand a chance?

He's definitely the choice of the corporate Republicans (Mitt was their choice last time). He will have to run to the right to get the tea party loons (as did Mitt) - but yes, I would bet he will be the nominee.

I am sure there is some deal like sec of state or something for him.

Non-political, out-of-left-field tinfoil musing: I'm wondering if Taylor Swift is going to appear tomorrow with Katy Perry at the Super Bowl.

Ten bucks says Katy shoves her off the stage.

Somehow, I've got Joan Jett in my head.

I totally thought the same thing when I saw Katy interviewed & she was bein all coy, but not in a playful way...? (Shuddup- I can't properly describe;))

And yes- Jeb w/ Mittens as his running mate is my prediction

[LoveTrains]

I don't think Mittens would take the running mate spot. He is too proud for that and it seems like a step down. Whereas something like Sec of State or another cabinet position would be different.

I didn't actually see her presser but there were two things that made me think this: (1) she basically went public with the feud, which at this moment seems like a PR stunt; and (2) she claimed there was a super secret guest star whose appearance would shock the world. Two minutes later, Twitter knew it was Missy Elliot. Now I adore Missy, but she isn't popular enough at the moment to knock the youngsters' socks off AND nothing about her appearance was kept secret, so I feel like it was deliberately leaked for the sake of misdirection. TS appearing would generate insane publicity, all things considered.

Y'all can point and laugh if I'm wrong. You can also point and laugh that I've given so much thought to such a fluff topic. I seriously was lying in bed thinking about this this morning as I was trying to find the energy to get up.

You picked her out of the ether.  She performed Smells Like Team Spirit last night at Nirvana's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  She's no Kurt, but she sang with soul.

Maybe John Mayer will appear to duet with them both simultaneously, wink wink.

I don't think it makes any sense to make VP deals right now. It's way too soon to figure out what the hypothetical nominee is lacking and where, to assess what he or she would need in a VP.

I agree he seems to proud, but If he takes the VP spot, he just needs to quietly off Jeb sometime after January and he'll become president by default.

I was thinking some House of Cards style manipulation.

I agree.  But it's not to early to promise an unspecified plum assignment.  Like maybe Ambassador to France or something.

Measles will blossom in DisneyWorld next.

I may be basing my theory on the fact that an anti-vaxxer I know is arriving with her three non-vaxxed sons tonight and asked if we could meet up. I'm pulling the card that my son has a cold so no.

Eh.  You're already screwed just by being there.  Have fun, though!

We just left there and all I could think about was "what if someone here has measles?"

I've also been sick all week (just a cold, not measles), and then I got all anxious wondering if I actually had some terrible disease and I'm the vector spreading it around   I did wash my hands and use hand sanitizer religiously, so I did my best, everyone.

Wait, are you there now??

Our trip this week was awesome. This is the best time of year to go. I will never go there any time but late January again.

Yep! So was my cousin, and now this friend, and I apparently just missed you, so now I'm humming "it's a small world. "
