The Circus is still in town

Well, we’re still under the Big Top. The Hill’s the ringmaster, and you and I are bozo the clown.

By all rights, O should end up with it, but what in this contest has been predictable? She’s still pushing for those FL and MI delegates and if they get seated as they are, expect a minor revolution to occur. African Americans might just take to streets and smash a few Starbucks windows, as well they should. Some of my white friends and I will join them. The pundits now predict a prolonged and contracted summer struggle for the Superdelegates in which the Hill will pull out all the stops.

By the way, we can all blame Ted Kennedy for creating this wonderful process. Back in ‘80 when he tried to wrest the nomination away from incumbent Jimmy Carter and failed, he came up with this brilliant idea of having Superdelegates who could vote any way they damn well feel. Of course now Kennedy is backing O, so it may come back to bite him in the ass.

Four years ago, despite the fact that Herman Munster was our candidate, who would have thought a democrat could lose? And now after 7+ years of agony, over 3/4 of a trillion spent on a failed war, the economy in the shitter, who would think McSame could actually win when he’s giving us more of Bushmonkey’s policies.

I say, no matter who our nominee is after the convention, we Wag the Dog and hire a big Hollywood producer. Let’s get Nigel Lythgoe of American Idol and take that Tues. time slot. For eight weeks, we have a Clinton Obama lovefest. There’s rock stars and Hollywood celebrities, and laughter and tears, and lots of hugging. The two may even need to make-out on air. To top it off, we even do a tournament of olive branches parade, live from Florida AND Ohio.

And if all that fails and we lose the general election because Americans still aren’t in enough pain, then I say we all just shake hands and dis-unite. Everyone is welcome to go their own way. Utah, feel free to legalize polygamy. Have a good time with our blessings. Florida, put Jesus on your flag and fly it high if that’s what your heart desires. For me, I’ll push for California and New York to form their own new nation. We’ll call it Caliyork. And if need be, we can have West Caliyork and East Caliyork. We’ll all be wealthy, we won’t make war, we’ll have our own universal healthcare, we’ll legalize marijuana, and we’ll get rid of the death penalty. Oh sure we’ll buy a little corn from Kansas, but Florida, you can keep your citrus. We grow fruit… And by the way, we’ll live on solar power and bring back the electric car.
