What struck me most when I saw this picture of Democratic candidates John Kerry and John Edwards had nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans. I just saw lots of teeth. I don’t have a thing for teeth or anything like that, but I don’t remember thinking “teeth” in politics since Jimmy Carter ran for president. Although it *is* kind of strange that they don’t have bottom teeth – they more than make up for it with the top choppers. I vote for the best person – or lesser of two evils it seems lately – so I don’t consider myself Republican or Democrat. I say this because my next statement seems very anti-Republican (and it’s really just anti-person-who-happens-to-be-Republican). When I see Bush on TV I tune him out automatically and I just have to contend with his image until I can find the remote (ps, thank goodness for cable and lots of channels). End result, without all the chatter, you notice that he never really smiles more than that closed tight-lipped thing. Modeling must have been right out thusly forcing him into a political career. Either that or after Republican scientists spent so much money cloning senior Bush’s DNA, they couldn’t justify just throwing it away.
Because I didn’t feel like working, and I couldn’t get the tooth thing out of my head (I’m easily distracted) I looked up Democrat Jimmy and his Republican (lost the race in 1976) opponent Gerald.
Jimmy. Lots of teeth. Does the Democratic party have dentists on the campaign-trail bus or what?
You know, you could just photoshop swap the Bush/Ford smile and nobody would be the wiser. Freaky. Okay, freaky in my current bizzare procrastinating-work state of mind.
So, being the political expert that I am, I predict the election – not withstanding all the war and economy stuff you hear about on CNN – based strictly on enamel-power and going to the Democrats.
Too little, too late. 😉
