Ghastly pic. Now we need several more posts to move this thing up and off the screen.

Worthy of note that fact that Kerry put on the "clown outfit" at NASA..... I think you're on to something.

You want the clowns and the balloons together at the end. Getting the clowns rounded up is supposed to be the hard part. Getting the balloons onto them is supposed to be easy.

Could somebody please re-dub the soundtrack at the end of Kerry's speech, and as the convention producer franticly screams "More BALLOONS! MORE BALOONS!!!....." slowly bring up the song "Send in the Clowns", reaching full volume as the celebration culminates?

Announce they got the balloons cheap...they had been slightly used and seem to work just fine after removing the helium from them...

That would be rich:

"Helium? Who said to fill those effing balloons with Helium?!?"

"'S'what it sez on the job order and invoice, mac. Balloons: 100,000. Red/White/Blue mix. Helium-filled."

"Well, who the hell put THAT request in? I want a name, damnit!"

"Sez here: Joe. Joe... Mama, Assistant to the Events Organizer, DNC."

"Noooooo...!!!"

I can't wait for the cartoons. Falling balloons with "Kerry's Presidential Hopes" written on them. First a trickle, then a flood.

The balloon incident is begging for a coffee cup with something like:

"If you're in charge of balloon drops...
Only one cup per day."

I am still eagerly awaiting an army of people in clown outfits following Kerry and Edwards around to every campaign stop, handing out free balloons whilst a portable tape player with a huge speaker plays "Send in the Clowns".....

It would be reminiscent of Hillary Clinton's ill-fated "Health Care Bus Tour," when a tow truck towing a broken-down bus labeled "Hillary-care" shadowed her bus at every stop, until finally in desperation, the WH stop publisizing the location of her appearances and only allowed "invited guests" (read: labor unions goons and welfare whales) to attend them.

This would be a good project for you. And it sounds like a neat way to meet girls. Take a laptop with you, and give us reports from the road.
