The "Mystery Men" of "Myster Men" movie (non)fame originally sprang from this comic.<BR/><BR/>Kathy Griffin never did it for me. The little redhead who played Beth on News Radio is another matter, but I digress.<BR/><BR/>-ShawnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588280325775325323.post-91343180276757605012007-10-31T16:28:00.000-04:002007-10-31T16:28:00.000-04:00The Courier has always been a Republican-leaning p...The Courier has always been a Republican-leaning paper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588280325775325323.post-47351338234181237852007-10-31T16:00:00.000-04:002007-10-31T16:00:00.000-04:00I don't think the spin on this is going to amount ...I don't think the spin on this is going to amount to a hill of beans.

As for the Santorum endorsement, here's what they had to say:<BR/><BR/>"In Santorum, we have a politician who complains that his message isn’t reaching Black voters, and in Casey, we have a politician who hasn’t even tried... we have heard next to nothing from Casey, and because of that, we cannot endorse him. Though we are quite concerned that Santorum has been the poster child for a wing of the Republican Party that has been anathema to Blacks, we endorse Rick Santorum in this race."<BR/><BR/>Not exactly a ringing endorsement of Santorum.
