Good morning, Shakers! This is Shakesville’s Senior Shakesville Teen Analyst and 18-year-old Man-Boy of Leisure Kenny Blogginz. You may remember me from such other Shakesville hits as Dem Younginz and Young ‘Publicans. I’m the one on the streets, asking all the hard-hitting questions, while you sit back and read from the comfort of your own home. S tI was staggering to behold that whole scene at the Academy Awards with Leonardo DiCaprio and Al Gore. It’s hard to imagine that any one voting body was able to get consensus to pull off that unadulterated pitch for Gore on one of the most highly watched shows on national television. Yet they did. This is a one-letter election: D or R. It’s hard to think of an election in which the personal traits of candidates in any constituency have mattered less. Two reasons why party control is crucial this Nov: (a) GOP leaders’ ability to keep members in line; and (b) Dems’ subpoena power–to carry out investigations and elicit testimony–if they win.
