Re: Guy on a bridge is about to jump
Nice, but I did like one of emo's follow ups...
"When I was a kid, I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realised, the Lord doesn't work that way. So I just stole one and asked Him to forgive me ... and I got it!"
There'd be some truth in advertising.

I can't make out the image in the other lens...do you know who it is?
I'm pretty sure it's Ted Kennedy.

They've got Janine Turner!
Well if one actually noticed, one of the things they did was choose a group of relatively younger women for the reps, and a bunch of relatively (well almost objectively) older women for the dems. Let's see how ugly a shot of janine turner we can get once she reaches old age. Wrinkles and sagginess happen to everyone, and increase the chance of a really bad picture being taken.
Although I understand why Tal's joke isn't exactly "fair", it was a joke after all. I have to say the pictures on both sides (with schraf's addition) are pretty scary... and funny. Maybe someone has some bad shots of independents?
AbE: Oh yeah I should note, that the "good looking" dems are way overpowering the "good looking" reps at this point. Tal better produce more or they lost my vote.

Re: forgot to include this guy
another reason most women vote Democratic:
You should have posted a picture of his opponent in the last election. The choice was obvious, even for a guy.

Re: forgot to include this guy
Bringing it back to humor, I loved Jon Stewart's
Keeping it on the subject of Jon Stewart humor and Illinois politics, did you see that Blagoyevich (Ill. gov for those not in the know) did not realize that the Daily Show was a comedy show and was startled by the questions posed to him?
Can someone so unhip be left in charge of our state?

Re: Blagoyevich
I live in Chicagoland, and I call tell you that Blagoyevich is a total idiot.
I'm from there (left a couple years back to live in Europe). I didn't like some of his policies but I didn't think he was a total idiot. But evidence is mounting.
