the Duchess is a Radio Star

Last night some people were driving across I-80 on their way from California to a summer home in Iowa and decided to listen to a little talk radio. They scroll through the am channels searching for something really brilliant and they come across Sean Hannity...blah...they search more and hear Laura Ingraham...boring...and then, like the sun breaking through the clouds (or I guess since they're listening it's more like a great sax solo breaking through a jazz bridge) they hear brilliance on KLO.

They hear the Duchess explaining why the Republicans are floundering about looking for an issue. Why in the last two weeks is there a flurry of old conservative crap? English as a national language, Constitutional Amendment to define marriage as between a man and a woman, Paris Hilton gets to keep her fortune tax break, et cetera et cetera. The Duchess states very clearly it is because their tapped issue this year, or immigration, is not panning out since the American people tend to be much nicer in their immigration opinions than the Republican party and really they want the government focusing on the Iraqi situation, health care, the economy, or gas prices. None of these works for Republicans so they trot out English (fail)...ummm, Gay Marriage ban (fail)...well, maybe, Death Tax Permanent Expiration (fail)...Then the Duchess very cleverly predicts all three incumbents will win in Utah Congressional elections...way out on a limb considering the incumbency rate is like 96 percent for Congressional elections.

These people in the car are very impressed with the Duchess and decide to never vote Republican again. If only the Duchess were very tall, had long blonde hair, and great legs, she may be listened to as an expert in politics, because clearly, as Ann Coulter demonstrates, these are the criteria.
