Greatest Collection of Reasons for Voting for John McCain. Ever.

The Kim and Charlie Show @ Seattlest: One non-event, two reports!

Yesterday, the Seattle 'Legion of Death' Democrats held their formal Democrat caucus meetings. Yes, you're right. Nobody, but nobody in the world, gave a flying frig at the moon about this. Including, it would seem, a lot of those in attendance.

Evidently it was along day notable only for the group's pleasure in taking a communal hot-lead enema. (It's a kinky city, Seattle. What can I say? I just live here. I don't inhale.)

However, one report unwittingly supplied pure gold to the Republicans. The dreaded Seattlest scribbler Kim Ruehl emitted her Thoughts From Yesterday's Caucus, and unconsciously provided Republican strategists worldwide with a statement that, repeated often enough, would lock in John McCain as the next president by mid-June:

There's something radical and unbelievable about the notion that this is part of how we choose who will lead the free world: two rooms full of college kids, queer Capitol Hill young professionals, middle-aged women and older people who cast their first vote for FDR, worked on JFK's campaign, etc., standing there now for Hillary Clinton, drawing their names in large block letters on a piece of poster paper, telling jokes, eating hot dogs. In the downtime, we're separating trash, making plans for post-caucus beers, reading books by David Sedaris.
".... reading books by David Sedaris." What a word mural! Le plus essence d' Ruehl. John McCain needs to seek this woman out, and have her start writing viral videos for him immediately. She's got the touch his campaign needs to convince America that any group she belongs to has no business getting anywhere near the White House.

But it would be unfair to give all the glory to Kim. Some should go to her cohort at the Seattlest Charles Redell who is not only under the impression that George Bush will be on the ballot this year, but is also deeply unclear about the difference between the Democrat Party and the 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution:

"It should be noted that we're one of those political junkies you hear so much about so, hangover not withstanding, we were looking forward to the chance to mill about with a bunch of other rabid Democrats to prepare for the unseating of the worst President ever."

Redell touts himself as a native New Yorker Seattle transplant and "writes for Sustainable Industries and runs a business blogging for small businesses." Translation: Soon to go from being vaguely unemployed to hard-core unemployable.

I repeat: What can I say? I just live here. I don't inhale.
