[ale] NO NO NO NO NO

[Greg]

Well, hot women and politics sometimes don't go together but in this case I
concur with Harold.

Let's not forget the Gecko has his own car (a convertible) and he was
"Employee of the Month" (or at least that's where he parked) in the
commercial.

- strong business credentials plus it shows his true work ethic - unless he
parked in the spot but wasn't deserving of the privilege, in which case it
shows he's a true politician.

Of course his musical taste could be controversial.  "Kung Foo Fighting"
might draw in the older demographic but it could put off younger voters as
well as hard core pacifists and maybe the anti-war crowd.  But since he got
the whole family in the minivan singing it he must be a "uniter" and not a
"divider".  My wife thinks he's cool so he obviously appeals to the female
demographic.

But being the spokes-toad (kinda literally) for an insurance firm .... ick.

Dunno ... it could be a close vote and messy ...

What about the Budweiser frogs and Barney - are they interested in running
as VP's or will they split the ticket ??  Of course if Barney runs my first
instinct is to hope for a successful assassination attempt but being the
father of a 4 month old girl I wouldn't want to be known as a "Barney
Hater" - it could prove difficult to explain to Jessica later. (But that
*Barney theme song* it's just so ...agonizing and it stays with you the
whole bloody day).
