    I feel safe in saying that Governor Thompson's campaign will not end well.

    Come to think of it, the odds of this thread ending well are fairly slim, too.

    Wow. Just wow. The sad thing is I really think the dummy had no inkling how far he was sticking his foot into his mouth. With those kinds of instincts, how did he ever even get elected governor? You say something like that in front of a neutral crowd and you're screwed. How can you say that to an audience full of Jews?!?

    It'll peter out and die.

    I can't think of anyone--even our pal Yawn--who could defend this putz.

    Cringe-worthy, for sure.

    Wonder how that would have played at 21's seder dinner.

    How do you say, "You're fucked" in Hebrew? Or Yiddish?

    Tommy Thompson was speaking to a Jewish crowd and lauded their money-making ability.
