Yesterday I was in Sioux City, IA when I ran into a woman with a bald head who looked like a man with a bald head at a football game.
Someone painted her head red, white, and blue, with some flag stripes, a few white stars and a nice “Hillary” logo along the side. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so I did both.
Well, come to find out, the man was actually a woman who lost all her hair which made her bald which is why she looked like a man with a painted head heading to a New England Patriots game.
Campaigning in Iowa requires sacrifices. For example, I have to take my picture with anyone and everyone at each campaign stop, so when I saw this sickly bald headed woman with a painted head who looked like a man, I figured, “hey, against this woman’s face, I’ll look pretty good” so we did a photo shoot.
Don’t I look healthy compared to her?
Anyway, this woman gets her picture taken with me and I make the big mistake of saying, “Thanks for your support. How are you doing?” It’s supposed to be the other way around. I don’t really care how voters are doing, but they all like to be thanked for their support.
This bald headed woman starts yammering on and on about tonsillitis, surgery, cancer, chemotherapy, and yada yada yada. You can never be too careful when talking to voters. She told me she has five kids, and four adopted kids, and two of them have autism.
How convenient is that? Right then and there we came up with a plan to support autism research and that gets plenty of applause, and then this bald headed woman starts crying. Turns out she’s a Republican but now she wants to campaign for me.
I love this country.
