Running To Stand Still

TODAY'S STRIP

There are some Democratic voters who may opt for the son of the red hill mining town. There are some who -- with or without you -- will support the candidate who attempts to trip through your wires. And there are some who see one tree hill, shining like a lone beacon of light, and will support that candidate where the streets have no name.

And there are some Republican voters who may opt for all those dollars bills, slapping 'em down, ONE HUNDRED [heavy breath] TWO HUNDRED [heavy breath], while bullets rain down the blue sky. Others may opt for the best representative of, in, or around God's Country, the mothers of the disappeared.

However, Winslow is now running as a Third Party candidate. He's reaching out to those voters who still haven't found what they're looking for.

Exit. Stage left.

So the liberal in the strip wants Two Americas? Is that what Stantis is telling us?

I have to admit that Stantis did a decent job with the set-up and delivered a pretty good punchline today.

CJo - if I had a lighter on me, I would have been holding it aloft as I read your post.

We get it, you support Mary Bono, so why wasn't she in your hot/not list the other day?

Personally I liked the strip. Maybe it's just me...?

Looks like we won't be getting any Kucinich gags this year from Stantis; the Ohio Congressman admitted that his campaign was a long shot and dropped out to focus on his re-election campaign for Congress. He also cited his exclusion from the debates in Nevada as a reason for withdrawing.
