Last night (Feb 5, 2008) my wife and I had the opportunity to go see Rusty Humphries broadcasting live from Beaches Restaurant on the Columbia River in Vancouver, WA. Why is that cool? Well, in case you've never heard of him, he's a national radio talk show host. He's hilarious, says what he thinks without abandon and really gets people fired up about various topics. What talk show host doesn't?
He was there to help us people in da 'Couve celebrate a little Super Tuesday action even if we're not voting in the primary until next week? Odd isn't it? Was anybody surprised at the results of the primaries in the "all important" states?
I tell ya it's been exciting and fun to hear the various hosts rant and rave about the candidates for the past year when each candidate came out of the wood work to start down their trails and pound the pavement. But that's nothin' compared to the energy you feel when you're actually getting out there and mixin' and a minglin' with other political junkies.
I saw one very classy middle aged woman wearing a nice sweater with a Mitt Romney bumper sticker across her chest. We could hardly get into the parking lot without noticing a man holding up a huge blinking Ron Paul sign. At first we thought it was to rub Ron Paul in Rusty's face because he is not a fan. But Beaches was having a Super Tuesday party regardless of Rusty taking over half of the always cramped bar.
