I know political threads are taboo here...

[rabbit]

... but I'm running for office! I have yard signs and everything.

I'm a write-in candidate to be a precinct representative to the county ********* (I won't say which ;) ) party central committee. The precinct reps vote for the county party chairman. Right now, there is a power grab by someone else in the party. My precinct had an open seat and the current chairman, who was my little league baseball coach some 25 years ago, asked me to run for the seat and I agreed.

As an "at will" employee working for local government, I forgive you all. ;)

My wife has a saying that most politicians are "little people with big egos". Please prove her wrong. :thumbup:

Good Luck!

I was mimicking Spicoli’s intentional misspelling of the word. But thanks for playing. ;)

[Wabbit]

Does this mean you're going to say something and mean something else then change your mind and reaffirm the first thing you said while really implying that you meant the second thing and then flip-flopping back to the first thing you said then changing your mind to the second thing you said while doing an intern? :saywhat:

I am in my third term on my kid's school board.

People may hate politicians and many deserve it. But it is a thankless job necessary for everyone's well being.

Keep three things in mind

Politics is ugly

Governing is compromise

All politics are local

Didn't you just tell me like yesterday that you "might be working for the ass that runs this country"?

I'm pretty sure there are too many stars in "*********" for it to spell democrat, unless maybe Spicoli is spelling it ;)

You're just jealous. And what does that have to do with PR?

[race chica]

you rights good. you also a proofsreader?


:laugh:

Just because I don't proofread my own posts on an internet forum doesn't mean I don't proofread everything I do. This isn't the SATs or a national spelling bee.

There are also not enough to spell republican. ;) That's why I used nine stars.

Its nice to see how well being a republican has treated you my friend. :)

Live at home with parents? check.

bad haircut? check.

no girlfriend? check.

broke? check.

used car? check.


:rofl:

Maybe you can go get a PR job after all. :cry:

[Stu]

used car? check.

hmmm...

i'm one to rarely defend ogorman. but, buying a new car is rarely a smart financial thing to do, so thats no big deal.

the rest are true though (dammit, 2 are true for me)

Your Score Summary

Overall, you scored as follows:

24% are cooler, and
76% are more of a loser than you.

What does this mean?

Definitely not a loser - You're cool by us


:thumbup:

[Stu]

79% loser. :thumbup:

I wonder how the people who created the test scored. Cuz you know, those people that go around creating internet tests are so freaking cool.

[Andrew Longman]

90% loser. But we all knew that.

[TravelGal]

Well LA DEE DAH. I'm only a 71% loser.

Now, if I only knew which answers got me to that exalted status. ???

[tllips]

62% Loser. My wife probably thinks that is a low number. :gomer:

Dude I'm on track to make like 10k more than the average marketing grad does in their first year out of school. Like everyone in my company gets paid well, even the mailroom lady drives an E46 BMW. I'll have those things fixed soon, except the girlfriend thing, and probably the bad haircut. :laugh:

EDIT: And I'm fine with my car anyway. Its nicer than alot of new cars under 20K.

[Ankf00]

The great thing about O'Gorman, is he can take the ribbin'.


dood, when you get some money you can get a better haircut, upgrade the wheels, and what the hell - go ahead and splurge on that penile implant while you are at it.

[TRDfan]

the other steve - trdfan....

town councillor iirc

City Councilman - LaCrescent MN (Former School Board member)

Quoting my Dad when I decided to run "Do you really need the aggrevation ?"
My response "If I don't do it, who will ? "

Elected office of any kind can be severe brain damage. But it's a great way to give something back to the community.

Currently in the last year of my four year term. People were pushing me to run for State Senate - I passed. I'm not even sure I'm going to run for re-election. Outside chance I could run for Mayor.

Back on topic, I just found out today that I got smoked. Turns out the guy I was running against (we were both write-ins) is somehow related to like three-fourths of the frikkin' precinct. I never had a chance. Oh well. Maybe next time.

[Ankf00]

that sucks. next time talk all your friends into registering in your precinct, we'll rig the ballot Kennedy style :D

I've threatened for a few years to run for City Council. I figure that, considering the corrupt jerkweeds we've had over the years (Don't even get me started :flame: ), I couldn't be any worse. Then, after reading this, I realize this is what would happen to me.

Well, that and the fact that "Grand Am Sucks!" and "I like beer!" isn't exactly a campaign platform.

Darn the luck. Looks like you won't be able to sway the town council to spend millions on a CCWS street race in your town. :gomer:

Nope, NW Ohio. Not a lot of inbreeding here. Just a lot of huge German Catholic families who pass on their family farms from generation to generation.
