1. He's going to run against Corker?

Wow - they're really eating each other, aren't they.

[camera obscura]

13. That's what I'm confused about!

Something tells me he hasn't thought his cunning plan all the way through. :shrug:

[Crankie Avalon]

2. Anything to get him to stop "singing." nt

[TheDebbieDee]

3. That drunk ba$tard? Oh.........puh-leeze!

[sarcasmo]

29. If that is his Resume', he will fit right in.

[Metta]

4. Why not? He has no relative experience. He's the perfect wing nut.

What would his daddy say?

[gizmo1979]

5. More skeletons it that

closet than a haunted house.Can they keep him sober long enough to campaign?Is he the family values candidate?Maybe the Adams family.

[ihavenobias]

This skeleton alone should sink his campaign(!)...

17. you mean like McCain Palin Tradition?

McCain - Palin Tradition



By Hank Williams Jr.







The left wing liberal media have



Always been a real close knit family



But, most of the American People



Don't believe em anyway ya see



Stop and think it over



Before you make your decision



If they smell something



They're gonna come down strong



It's a McCain - Palin tradition







Now this old Union's got problems



That is plain to see



The Democrats bankrupted Fannie Mae N Freddie Mac



Just like 1, 2, 3



The bankers didn't want to make all those bad loans,



But Bill Clinton said you got to



Now they want a bail out, what I'm talking about



Is a Democrat liberal who doo







CHORUS



John N Sarah tell ya



Just what they think



And they're not gonna blink



And they're gonna fix this country



Cause they're just like you N ole Hank



Yes John is a maverick



And Sarah fixed Alaska's broken condition



They're gonna go just fine



We're headed for better times



It's a McCain - Palin tradition







I am very proud of America's name



Bu no society is perfect



And we have had our stains



If I'm down at the coffee shop and



Somebody wants to give our flag friction



We say please move on



Cause we're standing strong



That's an old John McCain tradition







CHORUS



John N Sarah tell ya



Just what they think



And they're not gonna blink



And they're gonna fix this country



Cause they're just like you N ole Hank



Yes John is a maverick



And Sarah fixed Alaska's broken condition



They're gonna go just fine



We're headed for better times



It's a McCain - Palin tradition







Some are bound to tell you I'm



Preaching to the choir



And that is very true



And we are going even higher



Like a mama bear in Idaho



She'll protect your family's condition



If you mess with her cubs



She's gonna take of the gloves



It's an American female tradition







CHORUS



John N Sarah tell ya



Just what they think



And they're not gonna blink



And they're gonna fix this country



Cause they're just like you N ole Hank



Yes John is a maverick



And Sarah fixed Alaska's broken condition



They're gonna go just fine



We're headed for better times



It's a McCain - Palin tradition

YUCK !

[ihavenobias]

28. Exactly. I posted the same video except it also has some funny commentary ripping Hank.

:)

[Botany]

6. Are you ready to party?

You go with that idea Hank!

:rofl:

[flvegan]

7. Good luck vetting this one, RNC.

:eyes:

[deadmessengers]

36. Actually, it would be easy to vet him

What skeletons could he possibly have in his closet that could make him look worse than the ones we already know about?

[flvegan]

38. Seriously?

I'll bet he's got scads of still-covered issues.

[tanyev]

8. Whee-doggee! I'll bet Joe the Plumber is available to manage his campaign.

[Tennessee Gal]

9. Oh please let this be true.

ROFLMAO!

[Mojambo]

10. I predict he'll crash harder than Fred Thompson in the 08 primaries. n/t

[Donnachaidh]

11. and when he loses that he can always join Hulk Hogan on

CMT's "Celebrity Wrestling". That seems to be the latest slide to oblivion for no-talent D-listers....

[UTUSN]

12. Oh, heavenly Zeus!1 Just when you think nothing can be nuttier. n/t

[JuniperLea]

14. He fits right in...

No brains.

[IDemo]

16. Are you ready for some Freepball?

[ColbertWatcher]

18. LOL! Oh this is going to be an interesting next 6 years! n/t

[XOKCowboy]

19. I personally know of one night when he refused to perform until the promoter...

got him his eightball of coke. This was right after his "Family Tradition" album where supposedly he'd just come to Jesus and given up his wicked ways. Yeah Right! Hated him then (he's a blight on his daddy's name) and hate him more now.

[iceman66]

41. i wonder if he demanded the same at all those McCain rallies?

Hmmm . . .

[dugaresa]

20. his father was a legend.....he is a putz

[Gman]

21. So TN could have an uneducated, drunk for a Senator

Probably would be an improvement.

[AlCzervik]

22. Is Shelby or Corker planning on croaking?

[stevedeshazer]

23. Worthless piece of shit. What's next, Ted Nugent? Charlie Daniels?

YEEEE HAWWW

from a true country music fan.

[gratuitous]

24. Merry Christmas to US!

Oh golly, this is gonna be fun!

[dflprincess]

26. I can't wait to see this

:popcorn:

[iamthebandfanman]

25. wow, he thinks hes still a big time celeb eh ?

well, a good political campaign will knock him off that high horse real fast.

who knows tho ?

[Claire Beth]

27. He is a worthless POS.... n/t

[rucky]

30. Maybe he'll sober up before Election Day. n/t

[trayfoot]

31. Oh My GOD!!!!!!!!!

[Bluebear]

32. Representing the State of Inebriation?

[mitchum]

33. Audrey fucked the milkman

[Mari333]

34. yay. a sure win for the Dems as I see it. n/t

[concerned canadian]

35. like sarah, he got a taste of the political limelight

backing two other losers. Maybe he's already fantasizing that Sarah Palin will come out and stump for him.

He was so ga-ga over her on the stage it was embarrassing to watch, even for a few seconds.

[kentuck]

37. "Mr. Bocephus..."

what did you mean when you wrote the song about "If the South had a won, we would have had it made...?"

[lonestarnot]

39. "comedian Rod Brasfield's ventriloquist dummy"

[Johonny]

40. Here's a bet is doesn't win his party's primary

[NNN0LHI]

42. Playing stinkfinger with Sarah must have gave him the urge

[Zomby Woof]

43. Cocaine makes one do stupid things

Delusions of coke grandeur.
