Barry's Magic 8 Ball Says "Fenty"
Marion B!tch Set Me Up Barry ended the suspense yesterday and announced his support for Mayoral candidate Adrian Fenty. Fenty can now count on a surge in support from crack heads, hookers, and the mentally infirmed.
In typical Barry fashion, he didn't bother to coordinate his announcement or messaging with the candidate he was endorsing. From The Post:
The Fenty campaign was caught off guard by Barry's public announcement. Barry's e-mail listed campaign events with Fenty today, but Fenty said he had prior commitments. He added that he has no plans to campaign with Barry before next week's vote.
Barry's endorsement has questionable value, and certainly brings with it some potential downside, which I am sure the anonymous Cropp supporters who comment on this blog will be happy to point out.
More from The Post:
Political analysts said Barry's stamp of approval was not likely to hurt the chances of Fenty (D-Ward 4), who has waged a vigorous 16-month, door-to-door campaign.
"It's an expression of political consensus and a widening of his base," said Ronald Walters, a political scientist at the University of Maryland. Walters said there had been speculation that Cropp (D), the council chairman, might receive Barry's endorsement. Several longtime Barry associates, including Cropp campaign chairman Elijah B. Rogers, are working with her campaign.
Certainly, it was the least valuable endorsement Fenty received yesterday. Yesterday alone Fenty received the endorsement of the Washington Post, the Washington Examiner and Planned Parenthood of Metro Washington. Not a bad day for the Mayoral front-runner (and he still enjoys the half-hearted, half-assed, kinda, sorta endorsement from this blog!).

Wow. I can only hope that Carmelita is kidding. Because if she isn't, those tin foil hats she's wearing don't seem to work too well.
How weird... I saw the same video posted on

What is this? Who's Carmelita? I dunno... but I must admit, the video is pretty funny. Fenty and Barry should go smoke out together.
Wow, Carmelita thats some pretty convoluted shit. I ain't sure what the hell that proves, except that maybe you should remember to take your medication.
Just so you know, I am way more concerned that Linda Cropp admits that she doesn't drink - at all. I don't trust folks who don't drink. Generally only two kinds of people don't drink - religious fanatics and addicts. I try not to spend much time with folks who fall into either category.
