Agree to Republican Values, Or This Kitten Gets It!
No, seriously, Carl Mumpower (which is a GREAT name, particularly in this instance), the Republican candidate running against incumbent Democrat Heath Shuler in the NC-11, has suspended his campaign until Republican leaders in the counties in his district pledge to support Republican values.Okay, okay, he says he'll resume his campaign if HALF the counties pledge to support Republican values.
The Asheville Citizen-Times has the only slightly less loopy details here.
Mumpower ("Just Say Shuuuush to Power!") is particularly pissed that fellow Republican Liddy Dole recently voted to override President Bush's veto of the Farm Bill. In June, Mumpower said he would support impeachment of President Bush over "the illegal immigration problem."
And you thought the silly season was long over!
