Cam-pain
Um, what?
Does Scott Stantis actually follow politics? Or does he just watch Fox News, where nobody gets any actual information about the campaign other than how awesome Rudy Giuliani is and how Hillary wants to eat puppies?
Let's see where we're at in the Winslow campaign. Winslow is shocked that after declaring his candidacy back in late June for the Prickly City Democratic primary that he's slipped so far in the polls. Oh, and not just declaring his candidacy - actually WINNING the primary. He says his campaign strategy was waiting - using Fred Thompson as his example. You know, the Fred Thompson who wasn't even considered a potential candidate in June, and didn't declare until September.
Let me go through that one more time: Winslow, who declared his candidacy this past summer, was following Fred Thompsons lead and was going to wait to declare...no...um...what exactly was Winslow waiting for again? To actually run his campaign? But didn't he do that when he tried to go to Iowa after winning the PC primary, and had campaign workers there?
Ahem. I guess we should move on, otherwise my brain will turn to mush. According to Carmen people NOW think Fred Thompson is slow and lazy - even though that was something that dogged Thompson when he was serving back in the Senate in the 90s. Brain...mushier...
Then the topper. The brain-liquifier. Winslow asks if it's the good kind of slow and lazy, and Carmen says "only if by 'good' you mean 'in last place'."
Except, of course, that Thompson hasn't been in last place since he entered the race. That honor has been owned by guys like McCain, Brownback, Tancredo, and Paul - but never Fred Thompson. Even before he declared.
Oh, and Winslow is running as a Democrat, where he'll be competing against Mike "Last Place Is All Mine, Bitch" Gravel.
Man I hope that Stantis was smart enough to look at his calendar two weeks ago so tomorrow can be an unrelated Halloween strip and not another one of these completely non-sensical Winslow campaign strips. I thought they were bad this past summer - it's like Stantis is going out of his way to say "You thought that sucked - you ain't seen nothin' yet!"
