We say "re," you say "count"

OK, so I’ll bite:

Barkley Throws First Pitch; IP Throws Fundraiser

St. Paul, Minn. (May 12, 2009) – Dean Barkley, Independence Party candidate for U.S Senate, will throw out the first pitch at the St. Paul Saints game on May 23rd. The former U.S. Senator will participate in what the St. Paul Saints are calling “Re”Count Night in honor of the 2008 U.S. Senate recount. Fans will have the opportunity to participate in many recount themed activities including a “color inside the oval” contest. The first 2,500 fans though the gate will receive a Count Von “Re”Count doll. The doll will feature the likeness of Coleman on one side and Franken on the other. The bobble head spins over a body dressed like the Sesame Street’s Count von Count.

The Independence Party is making hay out of this with fundraiser ticket packages. I predict this ends one of two ways: 1) a fun time had by all; or, 2) a bloody riot remembered for three generations.

    What about Lizard People dolls?

  3. Yes, lizard people was the big oversight here. It sounds like a good opportunity for an entrepreneur out in the parking lot. Anyone up for it?
