People I Pity

Robert Casey, Jr.

Casey, the Pennsylvania Democratic candidate for U.S. Senator, is embroiled in a heated battle with controversial Republican incumbent Rick Santorum. Santorum, a pro-life, Bush-supporting, right winger has been in jeopardy of being unseated in almost every election. This year, especially, Santorum is considered very vulnerable.

And the DNC sends this panty waste after him.

After a year on the campaign trail, Casey’s personality and charisma (yawn) has catapulted him into the position of Most Boring Democrat since Al Gore. After a recent debate between the candidates, Casey’s only real position appears to be “I’m not Rick Santorum.” Santorum crucified Casey on the issues, primarily because Casey’s deer-in-the-headlights look made him look like a cyborg. Good luck, Bob. You’re gonna need it.

The San Francisco 49ers

The 49ers come in to Arizona to face the Cardinals this Sunday. This is the Cards’ home opener in a new sold out stadium with newly acquired Edgerrin James and Kurt Warner. I think Arizona easily wins this match up, and makes me 1-0 in my suicide pool.

The crew of Space Shuttle Atlantis

This week’s Atlantis mission is a go, even though NASA claims they have not solved the “problem” with the shuttle’s fuel cell. Well, at least the problem doesn’t concern a vital, unstable shuttle system. Considering NASA’s recent record, maybe they should postpone the mission until the fuel cell “problem” is fixed. But, that’s just me.
