In a comment on my previous post, John Ballenger was nominated for governor, convincing me to, indeed, vote. John Ballenger will be my “write-in” candidate and will take Blackwell and Stickland by storm. I may assume the role of Ballenger for Governor Campaign Chairperson. Our platform motto will be: “Ballenger: Fair and Balanced” Oh… wait… that’s Fox News. “Ballenger: Because Libertarian Socialist Independency is Our Only Answer”
Actually, I really am still having a dilemna as to whether or not to cast my vote on a ballot this November.
The other day at our church staff meeting a friend said she had watched the gubernatorial debate and her final decision was that Balckwell is a “douche bag”. It was a funny statement and resulted in a hysterical reaction from the rest of the pastoral staff.
Also, I can’t vote for anyone who used to body slam me onto the couch and torment me in the back seat of the car on the way to grandma’s house. I would rather vote for a douche bag.
Blood, apparently, isn’t thicker than body slams and torment. I think I’ll pass on the campaign if I can’t get my own brother to vote for me. Thanks anyway Trav…
Say it ain’t so, John. Say it ain’t so.
It has been an incredible ride and I appreciate all of your support and hard work on my Gubernatorial race (by “all of your support” I mean Travis and Jeremy not my brother). It seems like only last week that Travis was proclaiming me as his write-in vote. Look how far we’ve come since then! (pause for rousing applause from Travis and Jeremy while my brother stands with folded arms…) I entered this race to increase public dialogue, and of course to say bad things about James Dobson. I think we have at least accomplished the later. I now throw my support firmly behind anyone who can be honest for more than 10 consecutive minutes… well, how about 5 minutes? God will you spare us if you can find someone who can be honest for 10 consecutive sentences? Damn. I’m just going to go read a book. Goodbye.
