    I'm sure the media will be all over this like white on rice.... and cover this to greater extent that when John Edwards did far worse in his personal life. It took the National Enquirer to break the story.

    Are you liberals sure you want to go down this road? Sooner or later people might just start taking a closer look at some of the liberal candidates that spawn in some districts. I guy who claimed Guam* might tip over if too many troops are there actually had to beat somebody for that seat, how freaking dumb must the competition had been?

    I wonder if he was born with the Roleplaying gene. Once again we see the left-wing MES-phobes talking about things that don't affect them.

    Well, the Dems DID have a furry awhile back.

    Look at how little effort he put into that Tigger suit. No style. I bet Jake Rush could seriously rock an Iron Man suit. If you're gonna do cosplay, do it up RIGHT!

    He managed to get his not so hard on the eyes main squeeze in skin tight mylar and was kind enough to share the photo with the rest of us. That makes him more qualified to be President of the United States than Barack Obama ever was. Too bad I can't vote for him.

    Too bad.

    He's the guy who chose to do all this wierd stuff and then put himself out there as a candidate for public office.

    If he can't stand the heat, he needs to stay out of the kitchen.

    There are consulting firms on both sides of the aisle that do nothing but take closer looks at candidates.

    At least he does it in public and doesn't hide his freaky side. Can't say that people won't know what they are getting from the starting blocks if they choose him.

    My future wife and I once went to a Baptist church (her father was pastor) sponsored Halloween party dressed in Star Trek uniforms. That was a gift from her to me as she loathed Star Trek.

    I guess I should now give up my dreams of running for public office.

    I'm not really seeing anything here other than he's dressed up in some costumes. People do all kinds of "weird" things, most of em harmless.

    I'm reminded of a Democratic Senator IIRC who reportedly did not run for president (in 2004 or 2008) because he was worried about the contents of his diary being revealed.

    Reportedly, he kept a record of each day in exhaustive detail. Including listing every last thing he had to eat and drink and when his bowel movements occurred.

    You evidently didn't read the links. He went to considerable lengths to try and cover it all up.

    Hardly doing it out in the open.

    Didn't you know, that's how he'll go to committee meetings and likely he'll dress the same way if he's sent overseas or meets foreign dignitaries...

    Doesn't anyone remember this guy: images (2).jpg

    We all saw how that ended...

    (That's Rep. David Wu(D) who later resigned over a sex scandal)
