Unfortunately it's amazing what that can do for a party's polling. The conservative party here had a number of terrible leaders and polled poorly until they got in their current leader, who manages to have an air of respectability about him. Now they poll well, indications that the new leader...

Ah yes, the cyborg slaves Satan needs to battle God's horde of dinosaurs riding on tanks.

Only an hour and a half after the mass shooting before everyone is asked to move on with their lives and stop going on about it. Amazing.
