Battle of the Bulges

The Specious Report strikes again with a debate between California gubernatorial candidates Arnold Schwarnenegger and Sunset Strip scenester Angelyne:

    It has been theorized that someone could win this election with as little as 12% of the vote. Will your campaign avoid any serious discussion of the issues as long as possible, relying mostly on name recognition and trite slogans?

    Angelyne: [long silence] "Look at my breasts."

    Schwarzenegger: [unintelligible] "Hasta la vista baby." [unintelligible] "I'll be back."

    California, the world's fifth-largest economy, is facing catastrophic deficits, a lingering energy crisis, water shortages, environmental concerns, unemployment, a depressed high-tech industry, and now rising interest rates threaten any foreseeable recovery. These are complex problems requiring real solutions. Should your candidacy be regarded as anything more than frivolous self-promotion?

    Angelyne: [long silence] "My doggie is pink too."

    Schwarzenegger: [unintelligible] "Remember when I said I would kill you last? I lied."....

I suppose having an impressive chest is as important
in a governor as most other attributes. Why didn't Elvira run?

I interviewed Mary Carey today, who is also an adult film star running for governor of California. The post of my article based on that interview will be posted soon. Stay tuned.
