45. "It's all over but the counting, and we'll take care of the counting"

THIS Peter King wants to run for president to counteract the crazies?



Besides, it's not 1932 any more. Having a New York accent doesn't play as well in the south as it used to, unfair as that may be. In case King has forgotten, he should ask all his Republican friends who told him to fuck off when he asked for emergency aid money after Sandy the way the Gulf Coast states got it after Katrina and Deepwater Horizon.
