This is just a temporary set back, my boy Chris was sent down to the minors for a little serious coaching . I'm here,I'm tested
and I'm ready to get the job done. My boy Chris made the mistake of side stepping the big bell ringer ,he went off on a different track and as a result of that his numbers sunk and he himself fell into the slumps. I told my boy Chris time and time again ,carry the magic number with you at all time, don't leave home with out it. Ring the bell at every opportunity .
MY boy Chris thought he should be speaking about issues he thinks are real to the voters . I warned him about his thinking he knows what people want to hear about- And I told him forget that-ring the bell ,people love to be reminded ,speak about it with an iron fist .
So I got him now, I'll be administering the tests and I'll get him ready for the big game play offs in the minors.
He thought he was swimming when in truth he was sinking. Not to worry folks Rudy can fix it !

They are indeed!
First laugh of the day award goes to you. I don't think I'll be able to get this image out of my mind for a month, though.

(54,330 posts)If they can have many more loons on the main debate stage, I don't see why the little loon table is so limited. The percentage they're out by is within the margin of error for the polls.

There is a rumor going around that Huck and me are the odd couple. Maybe thats a joke to some people . I can't speak for Huck but I can tell you this, I was robbed. Ok so fine ,have your laughs about it ,come debate time ,tune in ,sit down and shut up .I do the talking ,the screaming and the shouting and you do the listening . Thats the way it works .
