Dear Readers,
Well, if you haven't heard, Buz Mills and Dean Martin both dropped out of the race for Arizona Governor. Now Jan Brewer is going to win for sure. Honestly, I don't know why we're bothering with a goober-natorial election anymore. Maybe we ought to forgo the expensive formalities and automatically annoint Jan Brewer as the new Governor. Heck, she's already the Governer anyway.
So... since the goober-natorial election is already settled, I think I'm going to use my vote to make a statement, which is thus: "Libertarians are kind of cool."
Yep, I'm going to vote for the crazy Libertarian, Barry Hess. Ha ha ha. Hess owes tens of thousands of dollars to the IRS, I think. (But tax evasion or fraud doesn't disqualify one for public service- just look at some of Obama appointees!)
And Barry Hess makes his campaign signs look like road signs, which is kind of edgy... Hess is stickin' it to the man. Ha ha ha.
Yeah, there's no way Hess is going to win, but I appreciate him. He's for drastically smaller government, lower taxes, less laws, less regulation, etc. I think he's fiscally conservative and socially liberal, like Ron Paul but even more extreme.
As for the question of whether the guy could actually govern well, like Chris Christie, I doubt it. Barry Hess doesn't seem like the type of guy who could get the state Congress on board with his ideas.
Barry Hess for Governor!
I'm sort of interested in people who campaign for offices when they've got to know that they have no chance of winning. In a way I admire them. And in a way I don't admire them.
I'm thinking about Barry Hess, who is running for Governor, Richard Grayson, who is running for Representative, and Ian Gilyeat, who is running for Senator. I'm going to vote for JD Hayworth because, realistically, he has a shot at defeating the liberal John McCain. But I actually would prefer Ian Gilyeat. (I work with Ian Gilyeat's daughter at Severtson Corporation. Isn't that neat?)
Why do third party candidates bother running for office? Are they delusional? Are they making a statement? I'd like to know.
See you later.
Sincerely,
Telemoonfa

I know enough to know you misspelled governor as "governer" and forgo as "forgoe" (usually, morons misspell it as "forego" because they confuse it with another word).
Running for office gives you exercise. I ran for President when you were a little baby.
Now I'm running for Congress years later, when you are a big baby.
If you want to know why I run for office, you have to buy this and this.
If I get elected, I'll propose a tax credit for people with low IQ's to buy ebooks so you can get your money back.
