Jer-ry, Jer-ry, Jer-ry!

I was unsure if I should put this story under, "Politics," or "The coming Apocolypse." I settled on the former.

A while I mentioned that Jerry Spring might be running for senate. He appears to be putting more consideration into that effort.

I suppose it's good and bad. Good because more choice is always good. Bad because it's Jerry Springer. I don't think Jerry Springer is a bad guy, not by a long shot. He's done a few seedy things in the past, and has run a fake reality teevee show. These things are forgiveable (more forgiveable then, say, starting a war under false pretenses). On the downside, he has no plan. Nobody ever does, but it's a shame. "Power to the people," is his general message, but what about a plan?

I suppose I shouldn't worry about this so much, since I'm not from Ohio, but hell Ohio helps make national law too.

Having spent some formative years in Cincinati (Springer's home town where he cut his political teeth) I will admit that when he was a local newsanchor, he was downright politically tolerable. Voltaire, no; Vaclav Havel, certainly not; but Ohio could do a lot worse.
Jim Trafficant anybody?!
