Oh for the love of God and all that's holy.
I wish I hadn't looked that up.

9. Well I'm glad I know now!
Wish I'd learned through someone *else's* experience.

Then again, who am I kidding... I'd still want to know. Curse my curiosity. :P

11. I think all the candidates should have blimps.
And the blimps could cluster right over the biggest Iowa caucus and gently bump into each other like monster soap bubbles (or the candidates' own egos). It would be amusing to watch.

12. Yeah, it's for real alright
IIRC, it's not an "official" campaign blimp, but one paid for by a bunch of rich white guys with their own money.

Pretty fucking hi-larious, if you ask me :rofl:

20. I've seen little six and ten ft blimps around -
Waste of helium; apparently, we've reached peak helium.

Hmmm, since most Paulites are full of hot air, they should be able to run a more ecologically friendly campaign and use their acolytes to fill those blimps.
