POLITICS Richard Gephardt's All-Night Naked Mud-Wrestling Extravaganza Overshadowed By Capture Of Saddam 
ST. LOUIS - Another attempt to get his struggling presidential
campaign off the ground ended in disappointment
for DemThe Larry Ellison 'Don't You Losers Wish You Could Have Your Own Game' Same Game
s
much-ballyhooed naked mud-wrestling fundraising extravaganza.
âThis would have been the ideal jumpstart which the Gephardt campaign so desperately needed,â said political pundits Fred Barnes and Morton Kondracke in unison, to the accompaniment of their very own six-member band. âAll you have to do is look at how naked mud-wrestling helped revitalize the campaigns of William Howard Taft in 1908, Harry Truman in 1948 or, more recently, Richard Nixon in 1972,â they added, with conservative commentator Bill O'Reilly playing bass in the background this time around. Meanwhile, the sense of frustration surrounding the Gephardt campaign this morning was palpable. âWhat does a guy have to do around here to get someone to listen to him!?!â cried a distraught Gephardt at the top of his lungs after the latest failed endeavor to reinvigorate his campaign. As a result of the failed fundraiser Gephardt's position in the Democratic race remains unchanged. He still stands in fourth place behind a cardboard cutout, a word processor and a mustard jar. |
