Re: So how do you think the Tea Baggers did?
Never ran for office, and due to my "Lifestyle Pass Times" I doubt I ever could. But I do come from a family of fools who have held office. My mother was a councilwoman in Edmonton, and also the head of the Alberta Progressive Conservative Party for 2 years (The National PCs, not the Provincial). My Brother-in-Law is the ex-leader of the Green Party of Canada (see, a really big fool). My aunt was a Minister of Parliament for many years, then moved on to be a Senator (gave her seat to Stephane Dion in 1996). One cousin is a MPP (Minister of Provincial Parliament) in Ontario, and another was Mayor of Ajax, Ontario.
Let's see, what else. My father's aunt was Jeanne Sauvé, the former Governer-General of Canada. My father's cousin was the Mayor of St. Andrews, Ontario. I know there is a couple more, but I just can't think of them now.
Being in such a damn political family has left me with such a sour taste for politics of any kind. When you hear their "War Stories" it just makes you cringe at the waste of money.
