Will Jessie the Body run?

#1 Post by Buffacuse » Mon Jul 14, 2008 6:42 pm

For Senate in Minnesota--answer tonight on, where else, Larry King Live...

Of course he is--setting up a three-way race between a professional wrestler, a comedian, and, in all honesty--maybe the stupidest guy in the Senate.

If you're a Minnesotan--I feel for you tonight.

Well, ok, no he's not...says his daughter asked him not to. In a way too bad...he's making some sense tonight.

Cracks me up that he used that as his reason.

I didn't see the show - just still cracks me up.

He says he isn't - but gave a little space for wiggle room, saying that "if God comes to him and tells him to run the way God told the president to invade Iraq" then he'll run. He has until 5PM today (Central time) to file. If I were a wagering person I'd wager that he will file at the last minute.

He's just generating media buzz cuz he's trying to sell a book.

His daughter is disabled (I forget the name of it, but he once said that her brain is like swiss cheese) and I think all of the publicity and attention the family got before was difficult for her. So I can imagine that this actually would be one of the few reasons that would sway him.

Run, Jesse, run!

I'm darned good and ready.
