Hmmm. I'm no theologian, but I'm thinking that there's a goodly number of people in Alabama who need to re-read that one Commandment about graven images. You know?

So it turns out that I actually know--and by "know" I mean "met more than once, and exchanged more than a dozen words with"--one of the people running for governor. That person is Jack Grisham, lead singer of TSOL, and one of the most obviously borderline insane people I've ever had a coherent and semi-intelligent conversation with.
I was planning to vote for Arianna, but now I'm not sure.
What's scary is, the interview of Jack that I just read makes him sound far better equipped to serve as Governor than Gray Davis OR Arnold Schwarzenegger.

In all seriousness, I'll probably end up voting, "yes on the recall, yes on Bustamante." Gray Davis is a world-class fuck-up, and the other Democrats in Sacramento are only marginally better, but hell if I want the GOP to benefit from it with yet another Karl Rove-orchestrated power grab. Besides, this state hasn't had a Latino governor since the U.S. stole it from Mexico. High time, I say.
