Who wants to be a Governor

I’m afraid to watch the late-night talk shows or other comedy television.  I just know they’re all milking this California recall thing for all its worth.  “Vote for me if you want to live.”  “The Governator.”  I knew California was weird, but this one, to borrow a term from Senator Feinstein, is a carnival.  Where else but California could you find the following running for Governor?

  • a smut magazine publisher
  • the biggest and smallest actors in Hollywood
  • a former baseball commissioner
  • a student government wanna-be
  • a sexpot/stripper
  • a software engineer (who’s raising money by selling merchandise on the Web, including some thong underwear with her name on it)
  • a guy whose platform seems to consist of “legalize ferrets”
  • the Lieutenant Governor
  • more than 200 other assorted wackos, crazies, and clueless idiots

I’ll just sit back and watch the show.  This is gonna be fun!
