Idaho, U.S.A.

Share article:

If you do nothing else today, watch the moving closing remarks from the last two candidates in Idaho’s Republican primary candidates debate for Governor, beginning at 52:20…

The rest of the debate was pretty much as awesome. But I realize a full hour of that is a tall ask.

On a more substantive note, while The BRAD BLOG had been considering an endorsement in this race for the guy who had been living in Fat Jack’s cellar, we’re trying to find Fat Jack himself to see if he can be drafted as a write-in instead.

Also, too, we’re a little disappointed that the last guy didn’t tell us anything about “the Negro”. Seems a missed opportunity.

    Wow. All our favourite stereotypes of Idaho turn out to have some basis in fact…

    I was hoping for something beautiful that would defy stereotypes and preconcieved notions, words of clarity and wisdom that would inspire an epiphany in me and lead to wondrous productivity for the betterment of humanity. Nope, didn’t happen. That made cartoon caricatures look good like the most flattering of portraits.

    One has to wonder if this is another episode of a ploy to make the establishment figures look better than they really are.

    In fact, the reason those two dudes were there was because the incumbent Gov. Otter (the one second from the right), wanted them there to help split the vote of the Tea Party dude on the far right (the one that’s a dead ringer for Dan Akroyd).
