Tag team wrestling in politics

Media Add comments

Now I know why tag team wrestling is so popular. The bad guys always gang up on the good guys, but the good guys end up winning.

It’s a tag team wrestling match made in heaven. Barack ‘Half Breed‘ Obama and John ‘Pretty Boy‘ Edwards vs. Hillary ‘Ice Queen‘ Clinton and Bill ‘The Stallion‘ Clinton. Anything goes. Almost.

Poor Barack finally admitted, “I can’t tell who I’m running against sometimes.” Right, Barack. That’s the way it’s supposed to work. That’s the plan.

Attack me, if you want, but when I play the good cop to Bill’s attack police dog, you lose points. Attack Bill, if you dare, but he’s the cop everyone loves, and he loves to punch back.

Politics isn’t much more than tag team wrestling with combatants who wear a suit and tie. Or, a pantsuit. Sometimes it’s one on one, sometimes it’s two against one, sometimes it’s a free for all. That’s the way it is. Politics is a contact sport.

Having Bill as pit bull, attack dog, and teammate has certain benefits. When Obama criticized Bill for attacking him, I responded with a good cop, “We both have supportive spouses.”  Meanwhile, Bill can stump for me in South Carolina while I head out to California to raise money and campaign.

As if there’s a difference.
