[What is the hold up?]
You mean "who is the hold up?", don't you? I think you and I know exactly "who" the holdup is. Hint, he has jug ears and looks like Dopey on Snow White.
That wouldn't be the same feller that has a bad habit of leaning on the podium with his left elbow lookin' like some drunk at a redneck bar listening to Willie and Waylon while delivering speeches would it?
