Me: I was just on the NRSC website and was wondering why certain Republican candidates for Senate weren’t listed.

Lady: What?? I’m confused, what are you talking about? We have everyone listed there.

Me: Then why isn’t Marco Rubio listed as a GOP Candidate for florida on the website?

Lady: Oh, well in Florida’s case the NRSC has already endorsed Charlie Crist.

Me: Well, has the NRSC not endorsed someone in California then? Because I see 3 candidates listed there.

Lady: Well, the NRSC doesn’t endorse candidates until after the primaries.

Me: You just said the NRSC endorsed Crist over Rubio. The primary has not happened yet madam.

Lady: Well, the NRSC chose Crist because he is the most electable.

Me: Than why does Rubio in many polls defeat the Democrat candidate by a similar or larger margin than Crist? And why has Rubio been leading in straw polls done in Florida?

Lady: We are not aware of that sir.

Me: Hm, well thanks.

Lady: Is that all you needed?

Me: Yes mam, that’s what I wanted to hear.

Lady: Why were you curious as to that race specifically?

Me: I wanted to perhaps donate to the NRSC, but I will be sending contributions to Rubio’s campaign directly instead.

Lady: Oh. (hangs up on me without a goodbye or thank you for calling.)

Can someone explain what in the world the NRSC is thinking?!

The end of one of the most inspiring years of my life.

I look unto 2010 with great anticipation and excitement. 2009 led me on a journey in which I sought to seek out and understand my politics and become passionate about them. And thats mainly due to all you fine people on here. I have learned so much from everyone on here, and this year I not only gained a year in my age, but a tremendous amount of wisdom from all of you redstaters. Thanks for allowing young people like myself to come to the place and learn.

With that said, Happy New Year to EVERYONE. and one more thing…

MARCO RUBIO 2010!!!!!!

She woke up this morning and came in wearing a Barack Obama shirt. At my look of disgust she said (in spanish), “Don’t tell me you don’t like Obama!?”

“No. I don’t like idiots.”

“But he’s Black!”

Ladies and gentlemen. The reasons the disillusioned people of America thought he was the right choice.

She then went ahead to call me a racist.
