    Democrat "Survivor"

    Well, for this round of Democrat Survivor...
    • Kerry seems to have won immunity this week
    • Lieberman, has been told "...the tribe has spoken..."
    • Dean is the annoying survivor who everyone is just waiting to vote off
    • Sharpton is the crazy survivor that everyone loves (but knows he won't win)


    CNN reports that 80% of Democrats will be happy if Kerry is the nominee (he has received 40% of the vote so far). Apparently, the GOP also likes the idea of a Kerry nomination, because he's the only candidate they haven't run ads against.

    Zogby reports that Kerry would beat Bush (and that seems to be the #1 qualification the Dems are looking for) by 6%.

    Even Peter Jennings calls the Democrat AWOL allegations "reckless."


    Wow, the election season has truly begun in earnest! Just in time to take the place of football (though not as important, of course).

    What will next week bring? Will Edwards form an alliance with the other members of the cast to battle the front runner Kerry (who looked better as an underdog, IMO). Will Dr. Dean finally diagnose the terminal nature of his campaign's condition? Will Sharpton run out of money (actually, he already ran out- but perhaps he can continue to spend anyway...)? Will there be a backlash of the "National Guard" vote regarding the minimilization of their service (being sarcastic here, folks)?

    I know we all can't wait for this week's episode! The only survivor I liked is gone (Sen. Lieberman, I'm afraid you're just too in line with the average American to win the Democrat nomination). As predicted, the Democrats seem to be set upon sending up the most liberal candidate of the bunch...

    Thumbs up I thik it should be changed from "Survivor" to...

    Spike TV's mXc "Most Extreme Challenge" with your hosts Vic Romano, Kenny Blankenship and interviews with Guy LeDouche.

    Vic: Kenny, who do you think is going to take the Democratic nomination this election season?

    Kenny: Well, Vic I'm thinking it might be the pretty blonde I saw down at the cafe`.

    Vic: KENNY!

    Kenny: No, really I'm thinking that maybe Kerry will take the whole thing. After his showing on the log roll going from a couching preacher to a double fisty and still being able to get back up to win the competition I gotta say, I'd party with that dude.

    Vic: Yes he did have a good showing on the log roll but how about his finish on the wall and his standing on the Wedge-o-meter?

    Kenny: Yes most of the material from his pant legs was wedged up high into his nether regions.

    Vic: Ouch! It looked painful too.

    Vic: Next up is John Edwards. He's an advocate for a new controverial "Kill and release" program for the Inhumane Society for the unethical treatment of animals...

    :D

    Big Smile Ah. Da boyz.

    Guy liiiiike....

    Yes it is a funny show and you have to listen fast or you'll miss most of what's being said.

    Vic: Our next contestant is a Dr. Howard Dean. He's into overmedicating himself and is a conesiuer of pre-chewed food.

    Kenny: He's ready to swing over the fluid on the giant corn cob. And there he goes. A little slip but he grabs onto the corn hole for better hold with that Kung Fu grip.

    Vic: Yup. Noboby hangs corn like Dr. Dean.

    A much better show in my opinion. Actually I think that's how the Democratic candidates should be chosen, and not by winning the competition but rather by winning THE KENNY BLANKENSHIP'S MOST PAINFUL ELIMINATION OF THE DAY!!!

    DON'T GET ELIMINATED!

    the big game

    After the Super Bowl:

    Bushie called the Patriots and congratulated them.

    Al Gore called the Patriots and told them they'd been robbed.

    Bill Clinton called Janet J.

    Bill Bennett was collecting used soda bottles.
