California Recall Candidates …

Tuesday night, I got my ballot for the California Recall election. I’m sure you’ve heard of it. The one with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Big woop. Anyhow, since I vote absentee, my ballot arrived already. Click the photos above and you can see them up close. I’ve highlighted some of the other noteworthy candidates, just so Arnold doesn’t hog the limelight.

On side A:

Michael Jackson. Could you just imagine having Michael Jackson for Governor. Ugh. The guy can’t even balance his own checkbook, let alone balance the budget for the fifth largest economy in the world. We’d have our capital at Neverland Ranch. Lucky for us, this Michael Jackson is a project manager … not a singer/entertainer, or whatever.

Angelyne. Erm. She IS an entertainer. Sort of. She dances. In a club. Where men like to go and slip dollars into her, um … well, they give her dollars. She’d make an interesting governor.

Arnold Schwarzenegger. Like we don’t know about this one. I think most Californians are a little tired of the references to Terminating Taxes and such. He probably wouldn’t be THAT bad.

Richard Simmons. Ugh. Like we need that frizzy haired fruitcake running for office. Jesus. Who the hell needs his happy little face prancing around the capitol building. Erm. Of course this one is an attorney and businessman … not a jazzercise/weight loss expert.

On side B:

Gary Coleman. Whatchootalkinbout Wilis. Figures Gary Coleman would put his name in the ring. Damn kid’s been trying to stage a comeback for decades. Let’s try this one. You aren’t cute anymore, go back to your damn trailer and get a job … other than governor.

Larry Flynt. Publisher of a porn magazine. He’d probably turn the capitol building into the Playboy mansion like Heff. Naked girls running all over the place. Hot little bodies draped all over the … erm, where was I. Go Larry. Larry for Governor.

Daniel Watts. College student. Jesus, you get elected to student body president and suddenly you think you have the credentials to become governor. I guess for a first job it wouldn’t be so bad.

At this point, it’s sort of looking like a joke. I mean, every stripper and has-been actor has applied to become Governor and I still have no idea what my decision will be. Keep Davis or decide from the list attached. Ugh. How am I suppose to decide when I don’t know anything about these people.

Oh, and there are people with actual experience that are on the ballot also.. like Lt. Governor Cruz Bustamante and Senator Tom McClintock but who cares about them. I’d rather get comedian Gallagher in office smashing watermelons at press conferences. Ugh. California is in for quite a memorable election.

What I’m really looking forward to is the Presidential election coming up in 2004 … our change to get the idiot out of office once and for all.

    If you’d read my website, you’d realize that I’m not running to become the next governor; I’m running to force the major candidates to address the issue of student fee increases. I never said I was qualified to be governor. and yes, I was elected president of my college last spring. 🙂 Good guess.

    Thanks for the interest in my campaign.

    Daniel, the funny part about the whole thing is that you are probably more qualified than all the other people I listed. Good luck with your campaign.
