Dover, Delaware (FNS)-Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell shocked the crowd at a Delaware political breakfast meeting when she announced that she has changed her thinking about masturbation following a weekend bathtub "incident".
Spike Fromula, O'Donnell's press secretary, explained to the press gaggle today that O'Donnell now realizes that it is possible to "masturbate without lust in your heart" after Saturday night's revelatory event, which Fromula described as a "slip and fall episode".
"It wasn't exactly 'The Passion of the Showerhead'" said Fromula, in a reference to her former work as a marketing consultant to the Mel Gibson movie of a similar name, "but there is no doubt that her thinking on the issue has evolved".
It is once again time to play "piano bar" here at the ole' blog and turn a reader question into a story...and our "request" today comes from our friend jmb who is lucky enough to be living in Vancouver, British Columbia.
She wonders why American politics is now in permanent campaign mode. She comes from a Canadian tradition of limited campaign periods, and it seems awfully strange to her that we are already thinking about 2010, 2012, and 2016 before 2008 is even decided.
Matter of fact, it seems strange to a lot of us in the US as well.
Why does it happen?
Can it be fixed?
What can we learn from 2008?
Those are the questions we'll take on today...and with time especially short today, we need to get right to work.
