Gheorghe Explains the 2020 Democratic Presidential Primary (in Song)

Sung to the tune of The Nails' 88 Lines About 44 Women, our tribute to the Democratic Party's clusterfuck of a Presidential primary, 44 Lines About 22 Candidates, Maybe 4 of Which Have a Snowball's Chance in Hell:

Beto was a hipster dad
Played punk rock and bounced around

Uncle Joe expects to win
Lays his hands upon your mom

Klobuchar is of the North
Winter's coming, she's below fourth

Jay Inslee, man, he loves the earth
Warren's EPA chief his berth

Mayor Pete's a boyish type
Way too smart for his own good

Gillibrand is smart and tough
Hard to break through all the noise

Bernie is a Socialist
Fucked up '16, back to wreak

Kamala prosecutes 'em
Woe to he who thinks her weak
This is Steve Bullock.
Or some dude from my office.

Cory Booker, he's a vegan
Beard is pretty, his chances not

Tulsi's carving her own spot
Shame it's Syrian, loves despots

Steve Bullock is...
Who the fuck is Steve Bullock?

John Delaney...man, really?

Wayne Messam is...once again, I don't even know who these people are. Wayne Messam? Is that even a real person? Why would you run for office if you're the mayor of Miramar, Florida? I guess we could ask Pete Buttigieg the same thing, now that I think about it. Fuck, the meter is all wrong on this line. But seriously, many of these vainglorious assholes serve the party and the nation so much better if they'd run for Senate and try to deny Mitch McConnell two more years of packing the courts with misogynist Trumpian fuckbonnets.

Hickenloopermentum!
Andrew Yang is interesting
Hates the robots, like Yoshimi

Tim Ryan is a typical white dude
Full of himself, not a clue

Swalwell, he is one to watch
Too moderate in this year of blue

Hickenlooper's fun to say
Buy his beer, but not his chances

Michael Bennet, generic white guy
Stick to the Senate, make them dance

Moulton is an arrogant prick
Nancy Pelosi handed him his...jock

Julian Castro, Obama's Hud Sec
Bucking for a better spot

Gravel is a likeable loon
Keep him in just for the fun

Warren always has a plan
Total package; she's the one

Hahaha, DeBlasio. He’s a dumpster fire. Really makes that clown car of Dem candidates funny.

He’s slowly grinding NYC back to the hell-hole it was in the 80’s.

The Dems keep tacking farther left, not realizing it’s political suicide.

People like to say that but Biden polls 20+ point higher than everyone else in every poll except Emerson and I suspect that poll over-includes left-leaning voters given its host and location. Biden seems pretty centrist to me.

One of my first car posts here was about the 2006-12 Audi S6 and its Lamborghini V10 engine. Someone in MA (looking at you Squeaky, although this isn't your WCSAGD car) needs to go buy this:

Under 50k miles. Under $16k. Dear god help me to not jump on the Acela to Back Bay and take the green out to Brookline.

I've read more than a few predictions that Daenerys will die in the last episode of GoT. This sounds reasonable except for the fact that she has a giant fire-breathing dragon who will likely be ripshit upon her death. So does the dragon get got too?

the president* is speaking at an event today sponsored by one of our number's employer. i would pay everything i have for the doofus overlord to throw one of his gigantic but oddly narrow shoes at him.

jmu athletics just announced a major sponsorship deal with uva health system that includes prominent logo placement on the jmu hoops court. so the jmu court will have uva's name on it. if only we could find a jmu alum to comment.

dan lebatard's south beach sessions podcast is a great listen. if you get a chance, check out the action bronson episode. that dude is really interesting - spiritual, thoughtful, grateful, open, and willing to answer just about anything lebatard asks.

Just landed from a busy travel week. I am watching my 9 y/o’s travel game on an app. It comes with an automated announcer.

Technology is neat.

The Raptors are gonna get smacked in 4-5 by Milwaukee and then lose Kawhi this summer. Worst “good” franchise to root for in a couple decades. Probably since the mid 90s Cavaliers. Just no real hope whatsoever.

You sure he’ll leave? It’s not like he bought a mansion in Southern California or anything.

Oh, wait.
