John Kline: I ain't done shit.

[Dickie Flatt]

Check out Kline's new ad. Its main theme? That decades ago, he carried the "football," the briefcase containing nuclear launch codes.

If he's leading off this campaign with an ad focusing solely on his accomplishments from last decade, what does that say about his record now?

1. You know, I would love for somebody to find out if that's true...

...or just a fanciful piece of fiction. Has anybody ever independently proved that story?
....now THAT would make a 'veterans for truth' ad, no?

2. what is up with his accent?

that doesn't sound Minnesotan.

3. Why, it sounds like the accent of a man from Texas!

I can't imagine why that would be.

4. I wish I could see this ad.

That's all that Mr. K and I talk about when we talk about John KIine, which is almost never. "Why would YOU vote for John Kline?" "Why, because he carried the football, of course! Like FIFTEEN YEARS AGO!"
