Back in the day, writer Michael Lewis wrote a book titled ‘Losers’ in which he followed the 1996 GOP candidates vying for the nomination to defeat Bill Clinton’s re-election bid.
It’s a great read which never went NY Times Bestseller list because I guess it was too esoteric as far as what really goes in an American political presidential bid to gain a party’s nomination.
Bob Dole went on to win the GOP nomination over the likes of Steve Forbes, Herman Cain, and others…but then went on to be literally obliterated by Bill Clinton despite BC’s hazy memory in regards to incoming blowjobs dotting his past.
So..was there a winner last night? Yeah, there was. His name is Donald Trump and that’s why he hasn’t even bothered to show up for any of the four GOP debates so far this political season.
Our most orange ever past POTUS must have a smile on his face this Thursday morning. A big, fat Cheshire Cat smile on his face because he knows even if he got smoked in one of these debates his rabble zombies would still be behind him all the way.
I would suggest Michael Lewis get to work on Loser’s II so it will be ready for print by February 1, circa 2024.
As far as my promised Thunder piece which I intended to blog this morning. I planned on writing something really nice about the Thunder because I presumed they’d beat the Houston Rockets last night. But per the norm with Sam Presti’s teams…they choked and shat right down their down their leg and lost to the Houston Rockets. Not that the game mattered as for the Thunder had already been eliminted from the regular season tournament.
So…tonight, I’ll be covering the semi-finals of the NBA Regular Season Tournament semi-finals. I’ve actually enjoyed the tournament and the quarterfinals were great. In Vegas tonight…most in Oklahoma will see a Vegas arena which will be full and a city which should have an NBA team.
I’ll get back to the Thunder after their game against the Warriors on Friday night.
My question to myself is why does OKC need a new billion dollar arena when for the second straight season the Thunder are near the bottom in league attendance? I’m not voting either way on the arena proposal, btw….because I don’t ‘really’ live within the appropriate city borders. Me voting on this issue would not be ethical unless my child was enrolled in in an OKC funded school.
Be kind to others today. Help a person in need of compassion.
