Gregory Pratt Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 To sway all you undecided voters, let me say that I will be appointing SoxFan1 to be my War Minister. AKA Defense Secretary. There isn't a lot I can promise you because I believe in allowing Congress to work and the SCOTUS, too, and because I do not necessarily believe in a hyper-active, spend-crazy legislation-crazy Government, but I can promise you that we will protect America better than any of my opponents would. Also: my As far as my Cabinet: I would generally choose outside of people from SoxTalk because I believe in getting advice from the best people around. That means that my Economics Secretaries would be a mixture of Lawrence Summers, Bob Rubin and Paul O'Neill. My War Minister? SoxFan1, a man capable of keeping everyone strapped and killing any troubles that lurk, and there certainly will be such troubles with the Evil Koreans and Iranians around. My Attorney General? Patrick Fitzgerald. Better than Janet Reno and Boob Ashcroft! Everything else will be chosen from the House and Senate. No Mercedes Marxists or anything like that, however. good night.

Gregory Pratt Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 I am victor! A few words. Thank you, SoxFan1, for joining me earlier. You are now my War Minister. Thank you to the people who voted; to my friends who supported me early, as well, like Milkman and DA -- my dear War Council partner. To those who replied kindly to my requests for their votes; even to those who didn't but, yet, didn't vote for someone else to spite me. Thank you all! Now I know how my hero, Harry Truman, felt. And I said it early on: I travel at night and paint my face. You don't know it's over until you're in a bodybag. (Really, I enjoyed this and would've even if I'd lost, and I thank most of my opponents. Well, all, really.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory Pratt Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Mmhmm, the kid pulled it out. Comeback victory! AGAINST ALL ODDS AND MODERATORS. And, for the record, I endorse PA as Vice President, if there's a runoff. If not, then, I'll be happy to have Rex as my insurance policy if someone assassinates me.

Gregory Pratt Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Rex: did you take offense at something for real? If you did, then I'm sorry, but I didn't say anything with the intent to offend and don't quite see where you're coming from. SF1 has my back. And SoxTalk's. This is almost as bad as Bush. I actually won the popular vote the first time, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Greg won Soxtalk's inaugural presidential election because he utilized Soxtalk's back-alley alliance of misfits and hooligans -- the chat crew. We've taken down powerful foes in the past, and this particular challenge --while tough-- once again proved victorious. Oh, and I didn't read any of his political platforms. How's that for Chicago politics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sox4lifeinPA Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Thanks for the VP nod. But i think there's still going to be a run off between the top two vote getters, so there's not really a president yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
