Or maybe Sibby just listened to one of KJAM's Mighty Matts, who offers a hilarious parody of candidate questionnaires on The Jackrabbit's Den. Political spectators and certified (certifiable?) candidates alike should get a kick out of Matt's anti-declaration:
What influenced you not to run to politics? Well, I have a pretty thin skin when it comes to personal attacks. I make it a point to treat others with respect, even if I don't agree with them. I guess it all stems back to my dear mother instilling a sense of MANNERS that has been my biggest weakness. As has been experienced in the Democratic primary and even our own little episode with the hired thug out of Virginia slamming someone who hadn't even DECIDED to run, I know that I couldn't be that cold-blooded. So screw it, I'm not running!
Of course, with the right kind of brainwashing, perhaps I can be a sociopath along the lines of Michael Savage, Fred Phelps, Badlands Blue, and Ted Rall and make a mint in politics! [Matt Hendrickson, "Why I'm Not Running...," The Jackrabbit's Den, 2008.03.20.]
Don't let anyone wash that brain, Matt. Your listeners love you just the way you are.
In defense of Sibby, I think he said he would run as an independent in Dist. 20. Thus, he has until June 3, I believe, to file those petitions.

Anyone who does run has guts. There is stress, fear of losing, lack of sleep. And that is before the election. If you are elected it gets worse. Matt would be a level-headed person if he ran for something someday.
ReplyDeleteBut you left out what I would do if I was elected! That was by far my best line! :D
