The results of some elections that aren't making the network A-rolls:
- Joe Biden's son Beau will be the
next attorney general of the state of Delaware.
- Andrew "Mario's kid" Cuomo will be New York's
attorney general. (See a pattern?)
- Raj Bhaka - the former Apprentice contestant who rented elephants
and a mariachi band to march them around the Rio Grande in a
"border security" PR event -
lost by a more than 2-1 margin.
- Vernon Robinson, the progenitor of those wonderful "illegal
aliens will burn the flag while raping you" ads, got creamed, also
by a
2-1 margin.
- Paul Nelson, who plagiarized Robinson's ads because they were
just so impressive,
also lost 2-1.
- Diana Irey, who raked in hundreds of thousands of dollars in
donations from conservatives who wanted to "redeploy Jack Murtha,"
got
pasted by the doughy Vietnam vet.
