The Next Debate Needs More Mud: Wednesday 10/16/2019

The Democratic presidential debates are getting too predictable and too carefully scripted to slant coverage the way media barons and their national security minders want. It has come time for presidential aspirants to get down and dirty (Don and dirty?) And so, for the next nationally televised debate (hopefully over the air as well as on cable news), here’s what I’d like to see:

Live mud wrestling onstage, narrated by a Howard Cowell impersonator!!!

Picture, if you will and can, Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders facing off in a sea of mud, clad only in Titleist shorts, tripping, poking eyes, and body-slamming their opponent. Picture too Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris in Speedos tearing at each others’ hair (advantage Warren) or slipping through holds (advantage Harris). Let’s pair off all the others and make a ladder of mud until the final encounter, mano a mano, wrestles the top contenders to their inevitable (if the DNC has its way) political death.

Then and only then will we know what these people are made of. My prediction of who will take the final round is…

National Guard reservist and in-shape Iraq veteran Tulsi Gabbard.

More eruptions…

About Progressive Pilgrim

The pilgrims plod toward salvation, lords, ladies, knaves and fools, dogs of doubt nipping at their heels, peeps becoming perps by the time the journey is over and the dogs are dead.

Sometimes you're a peep, one of the gang, taking it all in. Other times you're a perp, taking action, nudging reality for better or worse.

On this site you'll find stories, mostly about perps, some true others imagined. Just like life, by turn reflective, reactive, rewarding, and ridiculous.

Explore. Read. Comment. Enjoy.
