Shea-Porter Want’s It Back

its mine!Nancy Pelosi’s mad hand puppet, the Socialist-progressive democrat Carol Seiu Porter, has just formally announced the obvious.  No, not that she is a Pelosi marionette; she announced that she is going to run for congress in 2012.  This is not surprising, not breaking, not even interesting, except to those who like easy blog material of which Shea porter is a redolent horn of plenty. Porter is blogging gold. Better than Biden, who is a total ass-hat but who at least has thoughts he can call his own, such as they are. 

The announcement, we were talking about that right, is anti-climactic. It was inevitable given that Carol Che-Porter has not yet, to the best of my knowledge, called Congressman Guinta to congratulate him on his win 162 days ago.  

That means, in my mind, (aside from being a sore loser of historical magnitude) that she has yet to mentally concede the seat she lost back in November.  (D-Denial)  (She is even now, likely casting meaningless votes with her party in some secret Pelosi shrine in the back of her bedroom closet.) But to win back her “birth-right” Kandidate Karol Kannot hide in her progressive bivouac and hope to attract more than the devoted leftists.  She needs to engage the independents to get enough voters to actually win, and will have to face hard questions in abundance about her record and its consequences on the country.

So the Q and A with the people she called ‘tea-baggers’ may not go well.  But her feeling of entitlement remains, the arrogance is not gone from that sour puss, and she never stopped thinking she was still the congressman from CD-1. So she is compelled to run–if for no other reason than that she can’t get the lifetime, taxpayer funded pension and benefits unless she gets back into office for one more term.


But is it good for democrats to have Carol Shea-Pelosi out front? Fergus Cullen, over at Red Hampshire, observed correctly that this move by the Teaphobic-Porter puts her party, the DNC, and their congressional committee in a corner.

They know CSP is utterly unelectable in a general election. They also know her strength among liberal base activists makes it hard for a more electable Democrat to win the nomination.Does the DCCC get behind CSP and discourage others from running? Or do they try to find a more electable candidate, one who can stop Shea-Porter in a primary? Either way, the odds of NH-1 becoming a targeted race for national Dems have just gone down.

Translation?  The Boo hoo Froot Loops love Socialist Clown-Porter but she can’t win, so should the Dems–who have no problem pouring your money into a bottomless pit to nothingness–waste valuable party money on the unelectable black hole known as Carol Scree-Porter or find a better loser to bet on?

I’m thinking Mark Fernald should primary her.  He’s just her male clone, and he can’t win either, but at least we’d have more opportunity to make fun of him for a few months; and after pimping for the GSFTC he could use a better gig, one with some hope of actually accomplishing something besides looking like a graduate of Everyday Math.  "It doesn’t have to add up, it just needs to make you feel good about the results."

Whatever the outcome, it looks like we get Carol Shea-Porter to kick around, at least until November 2012 when Obama sucks her into the even bigger black hole he has created at the expense of the entire democrat party and their inability to dump the Half-cracker Ken doll they nominated for Golfer-in-Chief back in 2008.
