Chris Matthews for Senate???

Filed in National by on April 16, 2008

Okay, at first this seemed like a joke, but now…

I have been hearing rumors about Tweety running for Senate. When he was on the Colbert report he said that running for Senate was his dream. So, I googled “Chris Matthews running for Senate” and guess what?

OMG, I think he’s serious!

Add to this scenario that Arlen Spector’s cancer has returned

OMG, could Tweety really be considering this? What an ego!

Even better… what a youtube dream.

    What’s worse, if Spector drops out, Tweety runs as a Dem, and the Repubs put up a Toomey clone against him – we will end up supporting Tweety for Senate.

    Anon, your insightfulness scares me!

  3. truth teller says:

    the only good that could come out of this would that he would be Junior to Hillary

    Rick Santorum is tanned and rested…

    …and if Teddy Kennedy didn’t have to look at Arlen Spector every day, maybe he could finally stop drinking.

    Anon… please… you’re killing me! Vengence is mine Santorum???

    Gasp! You might be on to something!

    I have long thought that NBC3’s Eukee Washington (who resides in Wilmington) should run against Mike Castle so I’m not against TV people jumping in.

    Of Course Ukee is a Dover HS guy and was a childhood hero of mine when Dover went to the state basketball finals in 1975 (76?). I had just moved to Dover and hated it. DHS basketball was the only bright spot in my miserable 11 year old life.

    Also, unlike Tweety, Ukee is not a moron. He’d beat Castle by 30 points.

    I’m watching Matthews now. He basically said Obama can’t walk into a bar and talk sports with white guys. I mean he said white guys!

    He is totally pushing the Elite black guy can’t talk with the common man.

    As if hillary could walk into a bar and shoot the shit with 5 white guys.

    I mean how the hell does he get off saying that?

    they had a 10 minute gal pal session about being Catholic in Philly. OMG!

  9. Pandora says:

    All that matters to Matthews is that everyone knows he’s Catholic and everyone knows that HE knows his way around Philly… Hey, that sounds like me!

    He would spit all over everyone! Ever notice while he’s speaking the spittle comes out…hate to be right across from him. He is an opportunist of the worse variety…thinks he is the star!

    I don’t think he would give up TV and salary for a government check that may bounce.

  11. Of course, I am “tickeled to death” that Christopher may run for Senate. As his biggest fan, I resent people who would say anything bad about him. The guy has never been caught up in a scandal of any kind. That may be the problem. The American people simply love scandal. It gives their little minds something to mull over. Speaking of minds, Christopher has one of the finest in the world today, nothing short of Albert Einstein. Now, if you disagree with me, I will wrap you in a pink cloud of love and release you into the universe.

    Mr. Baskett –

    Your blog is either the funniest or the scariest blog I’ve read in a long time.

    Keep up the good work!

  14. Thanks, folks, for your support. “I Call Him Christopher” is international in scope. After seeing my pic in the book, a man in Australia wrote, “I would love to pull you off your little throne and pinch your little cheeks.” That’s the kind of support I need. LOL
