I know, a long shot.
A VERY long shot.
But, if dreamers never dreamed their dreams, they'd have eight hours of uninterrupted sleep and would never have the experience of waking up and ALMOST remembering what the hell it was they were dreaming about, but only just.
So, being a former journalist, I thought I'd throw caution to the wind, as well as my questions, then step back to see what happened.
Of course I didn't ask questions that all the OTHER journalists were asking. That would be pert near stupid.
"Ms. Davis, how do you feel about abortion rights?" "Ms. Davis, will you run for governor?" "Ms. Davis, rumor has it you're vegan, but you ate an egg before your now-famous filibuster, so what's the story?"
All easy questions that any dunder-headed, cub reporter could come up with.
Me? Now I'm different.
I asked her "important" things like, "Do you eat your chili WITH beans, or without?"
(See how I'm really asking two questions at once? If she eats chili, she ain't vegan. If she eats it with beans, she's a mislead Texan. Oh, and by the way, I have nothing against people who prefer to not consume meat. It's a personal choice, and I am pro-choice, which doesn't mean I would choose that lifestyle for myself, but to each his own.)
My questions were geared toward finding the TRUE Wendy beneath the official Senator Davis. Questions like: How many boots do you own; Would you grab a burger at Burger King or Whataburger; How many times a year do you go two-stepping; and after Christmas, do you take down your outside Christmas lights or do you just leave them up all year round?
Questions that get to the very heart of the REAL question which is, "Would I vote for this person if she ever ran for governor of Texas?"
So did she ever answer?
HELL YEAH!
Wendy Davis would make a FINE Texas Governor, and I'll keep saying it until I'm blue in the state.
'nuff said!
Well, i grew up a Mainah.. (we don't use Rs) and now i'm an Oregonian but the only real chili has no beans.
ReplyDeleteAnd i totally think she'd be a fabulous governor of Texas, or even better, a US Senator from Texas! I'm a dyed iin the wool, permanent blue marker Dem. Maybe Texas will be blue someday? What are the chances? Oh well a girl can dream...
Thanks Mary. And I agree, she would make a fine governor.
