PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN JUGGERNAUT UPDATE
Ted Habte-Gabr, Field Coordinator of the Dave Barry for President Inevitable Surging Bandwagon of Destiny (my positions on the issues may be found here) has been out coordinating the field like crazy, most recently at the Erotica LA Expo in Los Angeles, where he was able to identify a key voter demographic, namely, women willing to pose with him.
Ted definitely felt a groundswell going on out there.
So, the party was in Ted Habbity-Grabbity's pants?

*snork @ groundswell*

Hey, Ted! Stop sniffing that girl's head! Too obvious, dude.
Posted by: Suzy Q | June 25, 2007 at 02:25 PM
All 3 of those girls are too obvious IMHO
Posted by: Alien8 | June 25, 2007 at 02:28 PM
wooohooo!!
Blonde Bimbos for Barry!!!
Posted by: illegally blonde | June 25, 2007 at 02:28 PM
When asked for comments later in the day, Ted said: "Dave who?".
Posted by: wickedwitch | June 25, 2007 at 02:28 PM
"Is that a rolled up campaign poster in your pocket, or are ya just glad ta see me?"
Posted by: Wolfsong | June 25, 2007 at 02:29 PM
So, Ted's out "polling" for Dave?
Posted by: Lairbo | June 25, 2007 at 02:29 PM
Proof that chicks dig guys with mullets.
Posted by: Stev0 | June 25, 2007 at 02:31 PM
Hey Lairbo, polling rhymes w/trolling - just sayin'...
Posted by: estrogen centrale | June 25, 2007 at 02:33 PM
His mullet fell off!
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 02:33 PM
are those girls even old enough to vote?
Posted by: crossgirl | June 25, 2007 at 02:35 PM
Does this campaign really want the Paris/Twitney/Lindsey vote? They all supported John Kerry and look how that turned out!
Posted by: Dr. Rickenstein | June 25, 2007 at 02:38 PM
*wonders why everyone has the same shade of lipstick*
Posted by: blondeshell | June 25, 2007 at 02:39 PM
But can they parallel park?
Posted by: SW | June 25, 2007 at 02:39 PM
terned out great fer me!
Posted by: W | June 25, 2007 at 02:40 PM
Oh, they're Scores girls...
*that lipstick must be the (only) uniform requirement*
Posted by: blondeshell | June 25, 2007 at 02:44 PM
I don't know this for sure, but I've heard that Mr. Habte-Gabr gives new meaning to the term "campaign stump."
Most Apt Anagram of Habte-Gabr: "Bag The Bra"

Sound Hole indeed.

Hey, I happen to think that reaching out to an untapped demographic is a good idea Mr. Barry! By the way, I am available to be Ambassador to Score's if you need me.
Posted by: William J. Clinton | June 25, 2007 at 02:49 PM
uh, trolling for dave, more than likely. and where is YOUR mullet?
Posted by: queensbee | June 25, 2007 at 02:51 PM
Bill, if you're going to campaign, do I really have to remind you which candidate should be getting your undivided attention?!?
Posted by: Hillary | June 25, 2007 at 02:54 PM
"are those girls even old enough to vote?"
Who cares?
"*wonders why everyone has the same shade of lipstick*"
Didn't notice.
Posted by: pogo | June 25, 2007 at 03:00 PM
Ted's obviously going after voters of every strip. Er, stripe.
Posted by: Ford79 | June 25, 2007 at 03:00 PM
Looks like Dave has signed up some great dark roots, I mean grassroots campaigners.
Posted by: PeterM | June 25, 2007 at 03:02 PM
*major snorks for Ford79 & PeterM*
Posted by: estrogen centrale | June 25, 2007 at 03:04 PM
You are doing the Lord's work Ted.
Also is it just me or did Ted lose his mullet?
Posted by: Recovering 24 Addict | June 25, 2007 at 03:08 PM
Now, whenever I hear the word "groundswell" on the evening news and start laughing, I'll tell people who think I'm nuts that it's all Dave's fault.
;^)
Posted by: Spiny Norman | June 25, 2007 at 03:09 PM
He's definitely out for the vote of the Hardland.
Posted by: Bethie | June 25, 2007 at 03:12 PM
Dave, please instruct Ted to have the ladies in the second photo hold the bumper sticker lower.
Or, not at all.
Posted by: gfunksizzle | June 25, 2007 at 03:12 PM
Its not fair comparing these girls to Paris and company. After all, these gals have jobs and work for a living.
Posted by: The blog reader formerly known as Matt | June 25, 2007 at 03:18 PM
Ex-Addict, nope...it's not just you ;-)
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 03:20 PM
Be honest: do we really think anyone in this demographic (Women Willing To Pose With Ted) are capable of registering to vote?
Not that Ted cares... (lucky swine).
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | June 25, 2007 at 03:24 PM
So, Dave has now locked up that all-important Generation XXX vote.
Posted by: Just Ducky | June 25, 2007 at 03:30 PM
Is the demographic in question here
(a)Women Willing To Pose With Ted
(b)Women Willing To Pose, or
(c)Women Willing To?
Posted by: Alien8 | June 25, 2007 at 03:53 PM
Women Willing
Posted by: W | June 25, 2007 at 04:00 PM
We interrupt this posing and groundswelling to express much appreciation for the good wishes this morning on the Scotland thread.
Sorry for not mentioning this earlier, but you know how it is with geezers.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | June 25, 2007 at 04:00 PM
W!! get outta my post! geez
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 04:01 PM
Ted is just underscoring the Candidate's commitment to the "No Lap Dancer Left Behind" plank of the platform.
Posted by: lurker | June 25, 2007 at 04:06 PM
Thanks Siouxie your best.
Also I promise you it is ok to click on the links.
Posted by: Recovering 24 Addict | June 25, 2007 at 04:07 PM
Now bend over, Meanie ;-P
**WHACK**

Posted by: Dr. Rickenstein | June 25, 2007 at 04:32 PM
Prof! I'm sooooooooooo sleepy!!!
CJ, better a hanging one than a pregnant one...
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 04:33 PM
Siouxie... thought you were gonna head out early and get a nap? You need to rest up so you can get back to the important things... like partying with me and Rick.
Posted by: CTProf | June 25, 2007 at 04:36 PM
oh btw, Ex-Addict?? yummmmmm yummmmmm
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 04:37 PM
Absolutely Prof! Couldn't agree more. Well, if she puts away the machete that is.
Posted by: Dr. Rickenstein | June 25, 2007 at 04:39 PM
Your welcome Siouxie 8^D
Posted by: Recovering 24 Addict | June 25, 2007 at 04:39 PM
BTW, I am assuming that the Amazing Steve will be making his usual contribution tonight. Haven't seen anything formal about it.
Posted by: Dr. Rickenstein | June 25, 2007 at 04:42 PM
No can do, Prof. Have to pick up Aless @ 5. dang!!!
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 04:42 PM
LTTG, but Happy Birthday, Meanie!
Happy birthday, dear Meanie the Blue
50 is a great age--it's true
So don't make a big fuss
Just board our geezer bus
This blog just can't do without you!
Posted by: Just Ducky | June 25, 2007 at 04:42 PM
Those blondies look like hoons to me.
Posted by: Suzy Q | June 25, 2007 at 04:46 PM
Aside to Siouxie...if you passed through every town in the Carolinas on your way home, when did you pass through my little corner of SC...I'd have welcomed you to town! It's the birthplace of Dizzy Gillespie...we have history here!
Glad you made it home safely!
Posted by: Susan | June 25, 2007 at 04:53 PM
*slinks off to order hoons from EBay*
Posted by: CJrun | June 25, 2007 at 04:53 PM
private message to Siouxie - see WHOA thread...
Posted by: Eleanor | June 25, 2007 at 04:58 PM
Rick, machete tucked away safely.
Thanks, Susan - I'm sure we went through it ;-) I was dazed and confused at the time.
"CJ and the Hooter Hoons" - agnfarb?? sports bar? p0rn flick?
Posted by: Siouxie | June 25, 2007 at 05:00 PM
I am about 18 minutes away from being on the loop with nothing but a bunch of hoons. *still not sure what "hoons" are but I can gurantee they will be out on that loop*
Posted by: Dr. Rickenstein | June 25, 2007 at 05:05 PM
CJ, don't slink. You want to order 'em on EBay, you go do it, dude!!!
Oh yes, and a belated welcome home to Siouxie.
Posted by: estrogen centrale | June 25, 2007 at 05:05 PM
*Is honored by additional good wishes, especially the Quacking Birthday Serenade*
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | June 25, 2007 at 05:22 PM
PROF!! I miss you too! :-) I HATE not hanging out here on the late-night threads. :-(
No, Rick - not yet! Still working on that.
Posted by: DeskDiva | June 25, 2007 at 05:30 PM
Interns!!!!

"All 3 of those girls are too obvious IMHO" (alien8@228p)
What the heck does THAT mean?
Posted by: SW | June 25, 2007 at 09:45 PM
Lucky stiff. He should be roundly chastised for not providing names, though. Especially the 2nd blonde.
"hoons"???
Posted by: Richard the Weasel-Hearted | June 25, 2007 at 09:57 PM
Ok, more caught up now. Found the "hoons" source.
As you were...

69th post on the adult film industry expo board. That is all.
