"Don't think of it as helping their economy. Think of it as burning their fields." This is what Kinky Friedman told Bill Clinton when he tried to give him a Cuban Cigar at a White House party.

I just saw Kinky on Sunday morning, and can't help but wonder what it would be like if he were to win.

They tried to play the silly angle, they played the Jesus and Jew angles, almost to a fault. Dragging out Decades old footage.

In what appeared to be a tongue in cheek joke of a profile of the candidate, I can't help but think he has a chance to, at least, really upset the apple cart in the Great State of Texas.

Refreshing to see someone do it. and in this day and age when the 2 major parties have bi-sected the issues. Where candidates have chosen to pander to the extreme elements at the heart of their organizations, giving a supreme minority, extreme influence, to get their names on teh Ballot. No matter what hits the fan, it is a breath of fresh air from where I sit.

The one liners were funny, but the sincerity shone through for me. Matter of fact to a fault? Perhaps.

For the record, I am a Northerner. A gun owning Union member, from the Liberal hot bed, of puritanical Massachusetts.

I'm voting for him. All the other politicos in the state are jokes but don't realize it.
