A nice list or a contrary indicator. I guess that's up to your readers TKC. I don't really vote.
ReplyDeleteNo-Vote for #22, #23, #26 and #27.
ReplyDeleteThat's a helpful list if you equate "progress' with the status quo.
ReplyDeleteDid they rate the candidates based on their views of unsolicited bulk email?
ReplyDeleteDon't like any of these peeps. But I will enjoy watching them fail from lovely Leawood.
ReplyDeleteNo one on earth thinks living in Leawood is enviable or special in any way. No one. People in mud huts on the Serengeti would be like: "meh."
ReplyDeleteHmmm, what do you know? (C)CCP is endorsing a bunch of commie libs. How apropos...
ReplyDeleteA few good selections here. But Didn't Judy Morgan promise she wasn't going to run again?
ReplyDeleteLooks like some of the shit the monkeys at the Zoo throw around almost daily. Nothing new here.
ReplyDeleteSince when do douche bags warrant mention as "power anything" ?
Grifters quite possibly, power....quite doubtful.
Hate to agree with the P.Bear on this one but he's got a point. This is KC D-Last at best.
ReplyDeleteBill Clinton said: It depends on how to interpret "is" or uh progress.
ReplyDeleteBad name CCP is just not good.
