The news came out yesterday that Bernie would be making a campaign stop in Boise on Monday.

So, a rather rightwing radio station here that uses talk radio to account for about half of their daily programming format, had one of their program's hosts ask people who were listening to their station to call in and talk about Bernie coming here.

About 7 minutes in to the program, some guy called in and said something that sounded like this --

GiffjigwhabegoshscratkinostoohscrooditwhashitgotinlikwurnickscrattschmishgottickHillary!

The radio DJ paused for a couple of seconds, and then asked, "What the hell was that?"

And the guy said, "That's what it would sound like if the Tasmanian Devil endorsed Hillary".

It was the funniest thing I have ever heard on that station.
I almost fell out of my chair at work, I was laughing so hard.
