So, in the state primary caucus, the idiots were working off of a list of delegates compiled on 11/1/2007, even though the deadline for getting on that list was 11/30/2007.

All of those people caught in between weren’t allowed to vote for a specific candidate, but had to cast uncommitted ‘provisional’ ballots instead. At the end of the night, the number of the provisional ballots outnumbered either of the top two candidates - McCain and Ron Paul.

I also read that because Ron Paul was the only candidate with a full slate of delegates, they bent the rules a little bit to allow other candidates to sign up delegates past the deadline. More here and here.

Lame, lame, lame, lame, lame.

…For Excluding Ron Paul from the January 6th debate.

According to the New Hampshire State Republican Party and an Associated Press report, Republican presidential candidate and Texas Congressman Ron Paul will be excluded from an upcoming forum of Republican candidates to be broadcast by Fox News on January 6, 2008.

“Given Ron Paul’s support in New Hampshire and his recent historic fund raising success, it is outrageous that Dr. Paul would be excluded,” said Ron Paul 2008 campaign chairman Kent Snyder. “Dr. Paul has consistently polled higher in New Hampshire than some of the other candidates who have been invited.” Snyder continued, “Paul supporters should know that we are continuing to make inquiries with Fox News as to why they have apparently excluded Dr. Paul from this event.”

FOX News is entirely Lame.

Well, as this Google Analytics report shows, the initial launch of The Hall of Lame has been somewhat less than stellar. Gotta call it like I see it.

This font is about as lame as a font can get. Look how many idiots use it inappropriately:

No matter what it was originally designed for, so many people misuse it that it needs to be banned from computers going forward. Really, it’s nauseating. If you’re thinking “oh, it’s not so bad” that only means you’re one of “them” and you have no design sense whatsoever. It’s not cute, and it doesn’t make people feel like you took the time and trouble to ‘hand write’ your email. It makes you appear unprofessional, and it’s a lame font for losers.

Because he stays up all night and sleeps during the day and is really cranky if you wake him up at the unreasonable hour of 12:30 in the afternoon.

And also because he doesn’t even feign mild enthusiasm if you show him some cool website that you put together. And even if you did have to figure out some tricky things to make it all work like it’s supposed to, he’s just not even vaguely interested.

Because of Bush’s systematic subversion of American democracy by usurping powers from the other branches of government through the use of “signing statements” and false constitutional arguments; for abusive executive orders that countermand standing laws and deny the 4th amendment; for violation of ratified treaties that ban torture and guarantee provisions for due process; for bankrupting the country with an illegal and unnecessary war, sold with lies and deception and for eroding the dignity, pride and integrity of America in pursuit of a private agenda at America’s expense, George Walker Bush is hereby the first nominee to the Hall of Lame.
