Come back, Sarah, it’s not too late!


Blog Guy, you look pretty upset. What’s wrong? Are you kidding me? It’s the race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination. All the potential fun is evaporating before my eyes! What do you mean? I still can’t believe it. Sarah Palin now says she’s not running! Two days ago, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie opted not to run. Donald Trump flirted with a bid, then dropped out. The great ones are disappearing, and it’s not even 2012 yet! How can I replace the likes of Palin and her version of Paul Revere’s ride? I may as well just hang up my blogging license and become an ornithologist! Calm down, Blog Guy. Step back from the edge. That corncob guy is still running. He is? That dude in my very favorite photo? He’s still in the race? He is. And that congresswoman is still in, too. Remember her corn dog photos? The one who wished Elvis Presley a happy birthday on the anniversary of his death? She’s still in? I believe so, yes. Huzzah! Corncob Man and Corn Dog Lady are still in! I suppose now I have to learn their names? It probably wouldn’t hurt, Blog Guy.
