Title: The collision of politics and MMA
Post by: Trembling Eagle on October 21, 2008, 02:02:03 AM

not that anybody here gives a shit
but I thought it was kinda funny these things came together in this story:

in an ad from Oregon’s democratic state house candidate Suzanne Van Orman where she uses Lindland’s MMA career against him. ye olde "ultimate fighting" slur. Granted Lindland is a FWD but leave his athletic career out of it.

the top two things about this video:

1. The trademark glasses, so familiar they are used in her logo.

2. "But cage fighting? That's not my thing."

She does a reasonable job holding a bat, holding a football as if to throw it, and catching a basketball.  It indicates to me that either she was an athlete, back in the day, or that she had a great PR person work with her.  Kudos!
