What in the world is going on here? Is this a bad thing?

 

[Blackhawk]

Why not? He would be representative of the modern democratic party.

 

[Noban]

That would be the "midget-wrestling, cousin-mollesting, inbred, crack-head, trailer-dwelling neo-nazi dog-beating platform." Could be fun.......

 

[Neal Bloom]

Might make watching Senate hearings interesting. Its a circus anyway, whats one more clown?

 

[longeyes]

Someone has to be the champion of The People.

 

[Joe Demko]

Why not? Other sleazemasters have gone on to careers in politics.

 

[philhir]

Surely couldn't be any worse than the sleeze that's in there now!

 

[foghornl]

And rather than being tied up in comittee, some matters could be settled in the chair-throwing contest

 

[Justin]

Believe it or not, Springer was actually the mayor of Cincinnati back in the late 70's.

Right up until a scandal broke when Springer was busted for writing a personal check to a hooker.

 

[labgrade]

Why not?

Kennedy's already captured the bobbing for the "car-dunk" thang.

Really, how could we go down from that?

& since we don't have a democracy, why not just put our political process on-live & give everybody "the vote?"

What could go wrong?

Actually he bounced a personal check to a hooker. He should fit in well in DC with the others who can't keep their checkbooks in order.

Checkbooks? Greg, you have far more restraint than I.

 

[PATH]

You just can't make stuff like this up.

As Blackhawk said

Why not? He would be representative of the modern democratic party.

 

[Greg L]

Just trying to do that high road thing Azrael. Some days are tougher than others.

Greg

 

[Guyon]

Senate is already a circus. Jerry would fit right in.

 

[Chris Rhines]

I'd vote for him.

[Oatka]

Maybe he would bring some class to that august body.
