Election Antics

It's Election Day in Texas, a.k.a. Run-off Russian Roulette. I've already been to vote. It was a tough choice between Ted Cruz and David Dewhurst in Senate race. Neither is that great, so it really was like a game of Russian Roulette.

At least now the endless phone calls and junk mail will stop.... until they pick up again in time for the presidential election, which is now less than 100 days away! Oh boy!

Both parties are trying to drum up excitement for their conventions, which are sure to be full of boring partisan speeches. The Democrats have added a little spice to their line-up by putting Bill Clinton in prime time on the Wednesday night during the convention. To make Clinton feel at home, the Dems will hide a woman under the podium. Clinton is likely to steal Obama's thunder, but Obama will have the last laugh. Instead of Monica, it will be Nazi Pelosi hiding under the podium. Ewww!

The Dems also were trying to get Anthony Weiner to speak at the convention. But he declined, saying he will be busy taking pictures to send to friends back home.

The Republicans won't be outdone, though. They're planning their own antics. And what could be more fun than four nights of rich white guys talking about the economy? I bet that will draw higher ratings than opening night of the Olympics!

Newt Gingrich is sure to liven things up, though. You can always count on Newt to speak his mind, even when no one is listening. And don't forget Chris Christie. He'll be good for a laugh or two.

If the Republicans really wanted to excite its base at the convention, they would nominate Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy as the V.P. candidate. But they're too chicken to do that!

See what we have to look forward to in the next 100 days? I can hardly wait.... hardly wait for it to be over.
