Not something you see every day

By Sean Aqui | Related entries in Bad Decisions, Elections, General Politics, News

You know a campaign is in trouble when it has to spend money on this:

Rep. Don Sherwood, a Republican fighting for re-election in northeastern Pennsylvania, says in a TV ad that he is Ã¢â‚¬Å“truly sorryÃ¢â‚¬Â? for cheating on his wife but denies ever abusing the woman he had the affair with.

I’m sure that’ll win a lot of votes: “yes, I cheated on my wife…. but I categorically deny trying to strangle my mistress.”

Funny, in a pitiful way. I always liked the “why vote for the LESSER of two evils? SATAN ‘08″ bumperstickers, myself…

That “lesser of two evils” vote is getting tougher & tougher… sooo frustrating. Given the economic challenges on our plate & immediately ahead, we need people in government with BRAINS. Where the hell are we going to find them?? Meantime, voters seem obssessed with stupid slogans, on both sides. Wake Up & Get Practical!!!!
