Clark
The comment about the chick in yellow reminded me. I went to this thing for Clark the other day, wanted to get a sense of where he stands on some issues, and it was basically the people here in the Burg who are trying to drum up support for him.
What a wacky group of people they were. Most of them were pretty old. Apparently one of the leaders got "The General" to sign some books. He was trying to get people to put in 25 bucks a person to raffle it off. And some people go so excited at the thought of owning the book it was, well I don't know what it was, kinda freaky I think.
And there was this other guy who wanted us to make some buttons to help out in NH, cool enough right? But he is going on and on about make 1000 buttons by hand, not having thought to check into whether he could get someone locally to do it for him at a reasonable rate.
Does he not have a job or what?
I went to a thing for Dean early in his campaign. And there was yet another person who didn't have a job, or anything better to do then be obsessed about Dean.
Every time I go to something to meet the people involved in the election of a particular candidate, I regret it.
I REALLY wish I could be Republican. Democrats are friggin weird around here. Could be because they are so rare. The Republicans have nice parties, there's wine and cheese and people dress nicely. The Democrats, not so much. Except for when the gay community was trying to help Rendell get elected. Those parties were fabulous.
So anyway, I've rambled on so long that I should start a poll.
What was your weirdest encounter in relation to an election?
