Early results…
In the category of candidate who wasted a lot of money on negative, misleading ads, only to concede VERY early in the evening…
<opens the envelope>
And the winner is… Martin Frost! What do you have to say, Mr. Frost?
â??Well, Pete Sessions is the Devil, and he wants to raise your sales taxes 7000%â?
Uh…. thanks, Martin.
In the category of truly dismal local news coverage, based around clueless anchor-people…
<opens the envelope>
And the winner is… Channel 5! Always a strong player with the clueless ramblings of Mike Snyder, they added an unusually ditsy performance by Jane McGarry. Among the highlights were Ms. McGarry putting California back in play almost an hour after it had been called for Kerry, while not subtracting the electoral votes from the Kerry column. Apparently, due to a unforeseen instant population explosion, California is now worth 110 electoral votes.
In the category of â??best frog voiceâ?…
<opens the envelope>
The winner is Tom Brokaw! (Trust me, if you saw it, you know what I’m talking about :-0 )
More to come if I see anything funny.
