GREAT FALLS, Montana (AP) -- Montana's Libertarian candidate for Senate has turned blue from drinking a silver solution that he believed would protect him from disease.

Stan Jones,a 63-year-old business consultant and part-time college instructor, said he started taking colloidal silver in 1999 for fear that Y2K disruptions might lead to a shortage of antibiotics.

Not the Libertarians' finest hour...

I wonder how many of the Dope Uber Alles crowd on here also have blus skin?

[HamiltonJay]

And Libertarians really wonder why no one takes them seriously....

Reminds me of an SNL skit. LOL.

I wonder if his daughter is the fat purple girl from Willy Wonka.

Jones is one of three candidates seeking to unseat Democratic Sen. Max Baucus in November. The others are Republican state Sen. Mike Taylor and Green Party candidate Bob Kelleher

Gee, wonder if we can get Bob to dye himself green and that way we can kind of COLOR CODE the candidates....

Yo listen up: here's a story
About a little guy
That lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees is
Just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue Corvette and everything is blue for him
And himself and everybody around

'Cause he aint got nobody to listen: ...
I'm blue (da ba dee da doo da, da ba dee da boo da)
I'm blue (da ba dee da doo da, da ba dee da boo da)
I'm blue (da ba dee da doo da, da ba dee da boo da)
I'm blue (da ba dee da doo da, da ba dee da boo da)


I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette it's standing outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feeling that live inside me

I'm blue (da ba dee da doo da, da ba dee da boo da)
I'm blue (da ba dee da doo da, da ba dee da boo da)

Please tell me this is from The Onion! I can't stop laughing.

[xsmommy]

Perfect theme song for the candidate!

[dfwgator]

I guess the Green Party wouldn't take him.

COLOR CODE the candidates....

Hmmm. . . could Florida voters handle that?

[xsmommy]

it would be a challenge, no doubt there are many color blind there, as well as intelligence impaired.

now, in NJ, lautenberg is already BLUE, as he looks half dead already.

[MotleyGirl70]

PURPLE PEOPLE

[dfwgator]

He's going to keep running until he's "blue in the face."

[MotleyGirl70]

Good thing this guy isn't a kid on the playground; this could lead to some series teasing.

Blue Boy!

"If you dont' vote for me, I'll hold my breath until I turn blue!"

[xsmommy]

LOL! i think this should be now REQUIRED for running for office, to identify one's political leanings. Now, it could get fairly nuanced, because you would need SHADING etc. to accurately display philosophy. powder puff blue, to deep midnight blue etc.
