WHO SHOULD BE MAYOR OF NEWBRIDGE? VOTE HERE!

[dave from knoxville]

We've got to get out the vote, PBR fans.

He's like the Philly Obama. A uniter, reaching across the aisle. A man of even temper and exquisite judgment.

Don't vote for MikeCain. Vote for hope.

FANS? This isn't a joke, pal. Vote for AP Mike or go hang.

Kick it back a notch or two, Nurse Annie, you're scaring the kids.

To answer the question, though:  I think the only people who should have power are those who don't want it.  Of all the candidates still in the race, Pudge seems the least interested in ruling; Mike seems to want it the most.  You do the arithmetic.

Yeah, but you're ignoring the fact that your guy, the pusilanimous pip-squeak Pudge, the guy least interested in ruling, also wants to kill Tom. And I'm somehow tainted because I want to spare Tom's life (not to mention the lives of others when fatso sets off that bomb)?

I've done the math: a vote for any candidate besides myself + Tom's death = no more Best Show on WFMU.

If that's what you want, that's what you'll get with every vote for my opponents.

I'm beginning to resign myself to the fact that Bishop Pablo Fontana is most likely not going to be the next mayor of Newbridge.


Just fyi, everybody.

[Richard_From_CHI]

It is clearly time for the Bishop's people to throw their support behind the candidate we need for a better, bomb free Newbridge. AP MIKE!!!!

[Richard_From_CHI]

I just read in Radio Variety where Obama has endorsed AP Mike.

And yet, as I pointed out before, Tom has frequently expressed unease about you and your ever-evolving eccentricities.  I'm not at all convinced you are as free of murderous intent as you claim.

If that was the case, I'd think Tom would've gotten it long ago, rabble-rouser! You don't think it would be easy enough to weave a plausible story to Evan "Funk" Davies, after he discovered Tom slumped over his voice modulator, impaled on seafood what come from a cooler? You think Mike doesn't have outs? He has plenty of outs. He'll just never use them!

These are the last minute slanderous politics of a down in the polls Palfner party, if you ask me. For shame!

With all the threats coming his way, can you blame Tom for being a little paranoid? Let's not forget that it was I who received the infamous cooler and its contents (it could have been a bomb!). I'd take a bullet for the guy! And, if Stevie Blue ever fulfills Tom's prophesy, I can promise you that my corpse will be there right beside his.

Mike may say all of that now but who knows what he'll be like when he gets drunk yet again?

At least PBR stays well clear of all mind-altering substances.

Really? That's news to me. Someone needs to go a little deeper in the archives.

[angus]

can't vote for someone that goes by the name Pudge or a guy who says that Weekend at Bernie's is one of his favorite movies (McCain)

This is just a scare tactic. Tom's life has been threatened for years. So far, no one's acted on it.

What I'm saying is it's worth the risk. Anyone But Mike.

These are the last minute slanderous politics of a down in the polls Palfner party, if you ask me. For shame!

"Last-minute"?  I raised the specter of Mike's malevolent tendencies weeks ago!  And given the man implied that he had sent a hurricane my way in punishment for my staunch support of Pudge, I think my fears are justified.  Indeed, not only did that claim confirm the fact of his violent tendencies, it also suggested Mike suffers from delusions of grandeur.  Is that the kind of leader Newbridge needs?  I think not.

Only if you count like acid and shrooms and coke and stuff as "mind-altering". C'mon you square, that's the bodies default state.

That is not a quality kind of thing to say! Delusions of grandeur are a positive vision for the future and you ought not to slander Mike's good name. Retract what you said immediately!
