"Klobuchar is running for Governor" Thor said.
"No. Hatch is running against Pawlenty for Governor" I replied.
"So. Klobuchar is running for Senate?" he asked.
"Uh, yeah. Uh, I think so. Isn't she running against Wetterling? Wait. What about Mark Kennedy? What's he running for? And Michelle Bachman? Is that her name, 'Bachman'? Is she one of the floral people?"
It was then that we realized that there were not enough t.v. ads running. In fact, there could never be enough t.v. ads running for two sort of intelligent people to sort this one out.
And the political phone calls? We hand the phone over to our 14-year-old. He handles the live ones very well. We're going let him handle all telemarketers from now on.
Apparently there's a couple of people in Minnesota who are going to have to spend some time reading before they hit the voting booth on Tuesday. Because right now, all I know is that Michelle Bachman wants pedophiles to move into my back yard and Pawlenty wants to implement school funding that's been implemented for years. Oh and I think Patty Wetterling wants to raise my taxes. What a platform that is! Crazy Patty Wetterling!
I really hate politics. I really hate voting. I have done it every year since I could, back in 1980. I'm just sick of the lies and the corruption and the collusion and the fact that it doesn't matter who's voted in, they're mostly gonna suck. And there's not a one of them who isn't going to raise my taxes. At least that crazy Patty Wetterling is honest about it.
No. Wait. I don't think she was the one who said she was going to raise our taxes. I think Michelle Bachman's people said that about her. Or was it Mike Kennedy's? No? Jesse Ventura? Is he running for something?
I'll ask the 14-year-old to help me decide. I think he's got this figured out better than we do.
