official voting thead for Top DUmmies of 2010

[Karin]

Well, I must say that unlike the general electorate of 2008, there are some here who are carefully and seriously weighing their voting options.  What are the candidates' public record and associations?  What true philosophies do we glimpse in unscripted moments?  Aside from speechifying, what can the candidates bring to the glory and grandeur of the Island? 

[Boudicca]

So many good choices, so few lines in my dance card.  Ah well, here's my vote for Top DUmmies.

The Willie for William Pitt
The Annie for bobbolink

Okay, I just spoke with Mr. Wiggum.

He says voting's going along just fine, about the same as last year.

Well.....I was hoping we'd do better than last year, not just as good as.

I have to leave for the day (Monday), but when I come back, I suppose franksolich will have to break some legs; we'll top last year, but I want us to top last year by a lot more.

Yep, the voting totals are going quite well.

But keep those votes coming!  Things have really been heating up over the weekend.  For whatever reason, a lot of folks prefer to send them to me via Private Message, which is perfectly acceptable.

Looking forward to hearing from more of you as the deadline approaches.

[franksolich]

Looking forward to hearing from more of you as the deadline approaches.

I'm guessing--and don't tell me if I'm right or wrong, sir; I can wait--the votes for the top ten (actually, top twenty) primitives are so fragmented that there's no clear-cut front-runner, or even three or four front-runners.

That's just a guess; I really have no idea if it's accurate or not.

And so I'm also guessing there's going to be some ties, which to my knowledge has never happened before.

This of course means that EVERY VOTE COUNTS; EVERY VOTE MAKES A DIFFERENCE, about where a particular primitive is ranked.

added later: I'm thinking in particular of Pedro Picasso, the Atman primitive, who just missed being in the top ten last year, having to settle for eleventh place, the poetess laureatte CalPig primitive leapfrogging over him.

I was all set to go, with a great autobiography of Pedro Picasso (being the announcement that he was a top primitive), but because he'd slipped back to eleventh place, all he got was about two and a half paragraphs along with the other runners-up, while CalPig, as a top primitive, got a full-page, front-page, write-up.

(And yes, it did upset Pedro Picasso very much, who got all pissy because he was only a runner-up rather than a top primitive.)

One vote can make a difference.

And for all those who've already voted, thank you!

[Godot showed up]

I'd vote, but in all honesty I haven't been following this that closely. Can I give my vote to someone else? If I can, I'm giving it to Bally to cast as she wants, since she came up with that super-cool "regressive" coinage yesterday, or at least brought it to my attention enough to make me want to use it often.

I know.  It's just that everytime I read that name that song pops into my head.  Now it will be stuck in yours as well.

Awwwww, that's sweet, I would have to decline because I don't feel as though I know the DU posters well enough, for all his hard work in putting this together I would gladly give frank the opportunity to cast an extra set of votes.

[Revolution]

I'll 2nd that motion. Either frank, or Mr. Wiggum.

[Tess Anderson]

A year is a long time to track them, and there's always those who could've easily won at least something (Bouncy Ball, undergroundpanther, NanceGreggs) if they had posted more often. I really've been going back and forth on the Annie for Alan Grayson, but he's so new there and has a small post count. Also, I'm sure bestowing any attention on someone like that would just further feed his ego. And the Willie decision would be much harder if William Rivers Pitt himself had stayed banned. That being said, here goes:

Willie - William Rivers Pitt (He IS DU to me)

Annie - bobbolink (his nemesis is a better liar)

Top Ten:


Proud2BlibKansan (heh)

Redstone (heh)

Stinky the Clown (heh)

EFerrari (heh)

CaliforniaPeggy (heh)

Hawkeye X (heh)

xultar (heh)

BainDramaged (heh)

Hannah Bell (heh)

BantheGOP (heh)

[PatriotGame]

Good Lord I don't even know where to start.

For me, picking a Top DUmmy is like picking a Top Stink Bait. They ALL stink profusely!

Ones that may not be top-tier but deserves an honorable mention at the least - based on their user-names:
Fumesucker
Codeine

Think about that...

BanTheGOP springs to mind because he is stark raving mad and I find solace in knowing our natural actions drive him that way!
He gets one vote from me.

The usual suspects get another vote from me:

Pam the dysfunctional teacher
Underground Panther - seriously, psyche text books are being written about her insanity.
CaliforniaPeggy - Freud would have a field day with her...erm...he...erm...it...WTF-Ever...
Stinky the Clown - the basement dwelling cat litter box licker-cleaner.
BainDramaged - Being so proud he smoked Drano, turned his brain into a gray matter "Slushie", then brags about via posting on the DUmp.


That is all I have for now...

[Ree]

Coz My brain ain't workin right here's my list...Frank will ya put em where they're suppose to go?
Bobo the Hobo...
UGP(coz she makes me look sane)
Beth coz she's a cupid stunt
and the obama boot lickers

[blitzkrieg_17]

In no particular order:
the subway cat
the scumbag primitive, Ian David
Bobbolink
Beth(for the same reason Ree gave, lol)
the malodorous clown(FKA the sparkling primitive)
CaliforniaPeggy
Proud2belibKansan
greenbriar/demtenjeep
Hannah Bell
Taverner
Willie: The Bostonian Drunkard. Yes, he won his own award
Annie: Alan Grayson. Because a desperate lame-duck congressman deserves it.
Honorable Mention: Name removed 

[chitownchica]

My votes for the prizes in each category:

Willie
William Pitt
This was a toss up between Bobo and the namesake for this award, Mr. William Pitt.  I finally had to go with Pitt.  It's hard to get invited back to the DUmp after being TS'd for merely disagreeing with a more favored DUmmie, but Pitt accomplished what NO one has done before. He physically threatened another (who no doubt deserved it), and was welcomed back with open arms. I wonder if mama Pitt opened the trust fund for Der Skimmer to allow this unprecedented move.

Annie
BOG
There are so many deserving primitives, but this year I will vote for the BOG. The amount of pretzel twisting they've done to continue to support Obama is truly amazing. Mental and physical gymnasts one and all.  Whether it's rah rah Cha who thinks Barry is dreamy, to rancid Nance who doesn't know the term apologist, to Tridem, who actually told people this week it's disrespectful to refer to the Messiah as simply he, and to show appropriate homage, one must refer to Lord O as HE.  This set of groupies is worse than any rock band follower I've ever witnessed. 

Top DUmmie 2010

Alan Grayson - his attitude as an elected leader, as well as his groveling for campaign donations, earns him a spot on my list.

AnArmyVeteran - FAKE FAKE FAKE

CaliforniaPeggy - one of the phoniest primitives on the island.  This idiot is the ultimate latte liberal in my book. She turned her back on a woman in need, someone she knew from the past, and then talked about it at the DUmp.  She was ashamed that this person talked to her in front of her *gasp* friends.  Wow- Piggy- your heart is indeed black and ugly. Blink, blink, blink.

DainBramaged - idiot. Not much else to say.

DefendandProtect - crazytown called and wants the inmate back.

EFerrari - Stupid is too good a word for this person. Her behavior stinks as bad as her dirty feet she displayed in a picture thread. Move to Venuezela you Yugo loving traitor.

Hannah Bell - Ah- Stalin's girlfriend is one I laugh at often. Who cares about the children as long as the workers are paid and are never fired?  Workers of the World unite!

Proud2BlibKansan - I weep for the children who have to endure this angry femme.  If my children we in her class, I would seriously consider homeschooling.
The Magistrate - Lover of all things Chavez. Won't allow any dissent regarding the great socialist revolutionary.  His constant use of the word sir makes me want to cause harm to his person.

Undergroundpanther - I don't know whether to pity shim or laugh uncontrollably at every post he/she makes.  The dichotomy displayed in its posts is completely lost on the subway kitty. This one absolutely rages with hate for anyone with any amount of money, as well as any conservative, rich or poor.  It feels absolutely no qualms in using government money for boob removal, and spends money it doesn't have on tattoos.  I still can't understand how this creature sees itself as gay, when it loves men. Why go to all the trouble of making itself a man to love men, when being a woman who loves men is the norm?  I guess it's just not wacky enough.

[Tucker]

Just so everybody knows, Hanna Bell is a school bus driver, not a teacher. The teachers union would privatize her position before they took a cut in pay. She's to stoopid to realize this.

[BlueStateSaint]

Hey--ain't tonight the deadline?

Get your votes in now!

[Chris_]

Hey--ain't tonight the deadline?

Get your votes in now!

Noooooo!!!! 

I haven't had time to prepare.

[franksolich]

Okay, voting seems to be ahead of last year, so it's all copacetic.

I won't be around today or tonight, so I'm asking any moderator here on conservativecave to "lock" this voting thread this evening at 11:00 p.m. central time, 10:00 p.m. mountain time, about eleven hours from now.

Votes will be taken, and alterations in already-cast votes, until that time.

I want to thank our esteemed colleague djones520 at our old home, for running the voting thread there; when someone needs to come up to bat, djones520 has always pulled us through.

And of course my usual gratitude to Mr. Wiggum, who has ten days to count the votes, after which franksolich unleashes the top primitives to the world, beginning with the ten runners-up, and then primitives #10 on up to the topmost primitive.

As mentioned, voting this year's significantly fragmented, and I'll bet there's going to be some surprises.  Because it's fragmented, that means EVERY VOTE COUNTS--it could make a difference between a primitive being #08 or #07, for example, or primitive being #02 or #03, for another example.

Again, thanks to all who have participated, and all who participate up until closing this evening.

You're a great bunch of people, every one!

Ditto to everything Frank said.

I haven't updated the voting totals since this weekend, but things are VERY VERY CLOSE in all categories.  For anyone who hasn't voted, please don't hold back, today is the last day.  If you'd prefer to make your votes private, feel free to send them to me via PM.  Additionally I've gotten more than usual at my e-mail address, so you may vote there as well:

Thanks to everyone for participating!

[Karin]

to show appropriate homage, one must refer to Lord O as HE.

Chitown, if you happen to stumble across that again, I'd love to see it.  Unbelievable!  I'm glad my vote went for the BOG, or BORG, as it is wholly deserved. 

Magistrate - Lover of all things Chavez

  I remember that recent thread.  It made me want to twist his head off first, then my own.  I settled for a tall stiff drink.  My loathing of the Mag knows no bounds.

Hey Karin,
The HE reference was buried in a thread. Let me see if I can find it.

I usually scroll past the Magistrate's responses. He has issues (ha- like they all don't).
