* From a pal…
So do you want footage of Schakowsky, Quigley and a reluctant Biss doing the Chicken Dance from the Tax Day Rally?
But of course, I replied. A dancing gubernatorial candidate is always a fun post, especially so when it’s attempted by a very, um, non-loose guy like Daniel Biss.

Did the “thousands” of protesters join in?

Is anyone not reluctant when they’re doing the chicken dance? If so I probably don’t want them as my Governor.

Never do gimmick-y dancing.
Ever.
Stand at the side and clap as others do
Ugh.

If memory serves… Didn’t dancing contribute to Judy Baar Topinka’s defeat against Rauner…er, I mean, Blagojevich?

If the whole governor thing doesn’t work out the radio Disney street team is hiring.

I’ve been exposed to a lot of polka in my day, and I’ve seen and participated in my share of Chicken Dances. I’ve never seen waving one’s hand in the air like one does not care as part of it. It seems only the dude in the gray cap is actually Chicken Dancing.

I like Biss - and he is a super-nice guy one-on-one - but he is certainly a socially awkward dude.

As someone of Polish/German descent, I’m insulted if either you or Sen. Biss thinks that is the chicken dance.

If he was awkward doing that part, the rest of it must have really killed him.

Duck dance. Chicken dance. Whatever. Looks like the only dance Biss knows is the one about raising taxes on the working poor and middle class. Wait. He’s got quite a bit of company.

well at least if it was a Biss only Dem Gub candidate invite we have this goofy video about him. Maybe Biss will request that the other candidates do the chicken dance so he can compare himself.

…at least he’s not droppin’ his g’s or breaking out a fresh, crisp plaid shirt!

I believe that is Naughty by Nature’s “Hip Hop Hooray” dance.

Looks like a scene from that movie Awakenings with Bob DeNiro and Robin Williams.

This is neither here nor there. But for many years, the Soccerchildren have sung their own lyrics: “I don’t want to be chicken. I just want to be a duck. So I shake. My. Patoot.”
Just felt that needed to be said.
