...and in news from the Arrogant Asshat Front...

First let me say, my sympathies go out to the family of Sen. Frank Lautenberg.  They saw him as a member of their family, and not as many of us saw him, one of the enemy.  Having said that, did you hear that Fox News' resident hand-wringer has decided that he's ready to take over the empty seat?  Even though it's BARELY cold?!
.

Veteran journalist Geraldo Rivera said Monday he’d “take the call” if New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie wanted to appoint him to New Jersey’s vacant U.S. Senate seat, but acknowledged the chances of that seem slim.
“I would definitely take the call,” Rivera said on the “Geraldo Rivera Radio Show.”
He made the comments on his show after The Daily Caller inquired about his interest in the seat after the news that 89-year-old New Jersey Democratic Sen. Frank Lautenberg died Monday.

Before Lautenberg’s death, Rivera had been open on his show about potentially running in 2014 as a Republican.
 
But on Monday, Rivera said “I’m the last person I believe Gov. Christie will consider right now.”
 
“I’m not spending too much time obsessing over that,” he said. “I think it’s a very, very long shot that Gov. Christie would even think of me, appointing me. I haven’t been vetted. I’ve only kind of toyed with the idea of running.”

He's only 'toyed' with the idea of running?  

Seriously?  What a crock of crap!  And what an arrogant ass hat he is to say this shit before Lautenberg was through twitching!  

And he does want the seat, he's hoping anyone who heard his show will help light up the switchboard at The Governor's Office with "Pro Geraldo" calls.  As if, right?  Let's face it, if he didn't WANT the Seat, he would never have opened his 'agujero de empanada' in the first place!

I do think Geraldo is a good replacement for NJ.  He's damned near as crazy idiot, Northeast Liberal Prog as Lautenberg was.

Personally I hope Christie throws a (R) in there, in an effort to even things up a little better in the Senate.  But given that Christie and Obumble are such a-hole buddies these days, I'm just NOT holding my breath!
