Fun with the Internet and America's shoutiest mayor

Go to your navigation bar, and type in www.virgbernero.com. It's a genius idea, by the way, if the people who run Wonkette came up with it.

By the way, word of Virg's exploits have -- thanks to last month's dustup over vaginas -- managed to spread to Jezebel, also. Just keep this all in mind the next time I roll out a "Most Odious" power ranking, and Virg has managed to hack his way up the ladder.

Also, dude was the Democratic nominee for governor in 2010. This needs to be brought up on a semi-regular basis a) to point out the terrible mess the state party is in, and b) so that the state Democratic Party is shamed into never again phoning in such an important nomination.

So we should have, what, nominated Andy Dillon?


Keep the Aspidistra Flying!

He would have been a better candidate, and less embarassing in the long run
If you are put off by that, don't blame me. I had nothing to do with the process that gave Democrats the choice between Dillon and Bernero.

Less embarassing maybe...
A better candidate?  Dillon is not a Democrat.  

Bernero might say some moderately offensive things, but Dillon's attack on teachers and other pubic sector employees is a subtler, more dangerous form of sexism and idiocy.

I'm sure I'm not alone in saying I'd have voted third party over Dillon and I've compromised my views to vote for plenty of moderates in other elections.  He may have destroyed all trust in the party.
