There's No Need to Fear... UnderDog is Here

Amidst the growing awareness of his scandal and his declining chances, Weldon embraced his roll as the "underdog" candidate.
I'm the underdog. That's what they are calling me. And I like it. And that's where I'll be.
* Curt Weldon, 10/20/06 after debate

In the Wacky-World of Weldon, candidates LIKE to be underdogs. I can hear them cheering now at the upcoming round of polling results (which they pay for, but don't really pay attention to) when Weldon drops another 3 points.

From the theme song, Ballad of Underdog:
When in this world the headlines read
Of those whose hearts are filled with greed..

It sounds like they were talking about Weldon.

The only similarities I can think of between Underdog and Weldon are that they are both two-dimensional and that only a child could believe what they say.

Unlike UnderDog, Weldon does not have a ring filled with a super-vitamin pill to revitalize his campaign for a last-minute save.

HMMM. The only one that "spoke out" against Weldon was a professor at Swarthmore Colege. That's a HUGE suprise.

professor at Swarthmore Colege.

Obviously you can't read (nor spell, either). You Weldonites really are fact-challenged, aren't you?

The article says the woman works at Swarthmore. It doesn't say anything about her being a professor. She could work in food services or the library or the dean's office or anything.

Next you'll be connecting her to "Grumpy at the gym."

She's also a registered Republican, and no amount of gyrations can get away from the fact she's not voting for Weldon. (Apparently, in your small, pointy-little head, you don't realize there are Republicans at Swarthmore, and there's also a Young Republicans Club there, too. But why confuse you with facts when you're so comfortable with distortions spun out of thin air.)
