Now that the Pro football season's started, I know there will be very little about the sport mentioned in my writings. Because, if nothing else, my goal is to try to keep this blog interesting. And as a Jet fan, from what I've seen so far, there's nothing remotely of interest about them, and unless they find a quarterback somewhere, somehow, there won't be any time soon.
But, I think maybe I've discovered something else, and it's truly remarkable. As improbable as it seems, it's just possible that there's an intelligent politician (I never thought I'd ever type those two words so close together.) Christine O'Donnell, tea party Republican primary winner in Delaware's Senate race "shocked the GOP" by cancelling her appearances on two national news shows, "Face the Nation" on CBS and "Fox News Sunday."
Her campaign spokeswoman told the AP that O'Donnell canceled so she could attend previously scheduled events, including a Republican picnic. She also said O'Donnell would love to appear on the shows in the future.
So, maybe this lady's wised up to the fact that talking of any kind can only get you in trouble, especially on nationally broadcast TV shows. Because, its almost a certainty that if politicians have to think and talk at the same time, as during an interview or Q&A session, anyone with an iota of brains is going to eat them alive. And although TV talking heads aren't the brightest bulbs in anyone's chandelier, they're certainly smarter than any politician. But, then again so were my puppies.
The bad news for most other candidates running this year is that they'll probably keep yakking their drivel and lessening their chance of election every time they open their mouths. On the other hand, though, if Ms O'Donnell keeps going to picnics or simply stays locked up in her home and silent, she'll likely win in a landslide like her party's never seen before.
That's it for today folks.
Adios
