Well dear friends after some weather related mishaps, I finally find myself in a secure undisclosed Iowan location with none other than our snarkmaster mastersnark Atta J. Turk. We will be attending the caucuses to experience the entertainment extravaganza that is Iowa politics.
I know, I know... can't you just feel the electricity?
Any suggestions for what we should do or events that we can attend are welcome. Personally, I am voting for the snow ball fight with Obama and making snow angels with Thompson -- you just have to remind him that we are not making Reagan angels. I just don't get it.
I am immediately struck by some indisputable facts. First, the Edwards supporters are all upbeat and handsome. No, really. They look good. While we have not been to too many events tonight, the Edward supporters are quite happy, attractive, and excited. As they leave the rally with Johnny Cougar Mellencamp, they were all singing "We're just a lovely bunch of Coconuts" or that Chevrolet commercial or maybe it was some other song.
The second fact is that there are many, many, many political commercials on Iowan TV where the candidate are all trying to look like they are caring, intelligent, and down-to-salt of the Earth people. Who knew?
And finally, it appears that the Thompson people handout many Law and Order DVDs which is cool because apparently Thompson looks very presidential and in total control in them. Personally, I watch them for the squeaky assistant DA not commander 'aw shucks.'
That's all we have so far... Wish us luck. Send snacks.
Stay tuned for more.
