This. It has come to this. Two horrible candidates and two horrible mascots. I am not a “furry” myself, I do not want to judge,but come on. I am sure Mark and Tammy might be nice people, but the Senate is too important.

@A guy- you may want to go to high school and learn to toughen up or at least come up with a worthwhile response.
On second thought, those high school kids would be pretty merciless with you.
You were probably better off stopping after jr high.

It looks like they spent all of their dough on the costumes and forgot to get a decent marker to make the signs.
