Senate hopeful Rodney Glassman is trying to unseat McCain. While this isn't exactly karaoke... it might as well be.
Shannon Roberts has her eye on a house seat in Florida, and she is throwing a little karaoke party this coming Saturday. Cost is only $10!
Blogojevich is no longer in politics so he figgers he can come out of the closet and sing a little Elvis at a block party.
In Wisconsin politics, Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott Walker is not ashamed to admit that he met his wife while singing karaoke at Saz's. Risky....
And the final karaoke / political mixing...
Ron Johnson directed and starred in a short movie called "Karaoke King". The movie is a mockumentary about a guy who made it from karaoke singer to stardom. Clearly this was a mockumentary, since no one ever got discovered singing karaoke.
Ron Johnson is running against Russ Feingold for Wisconsin's US Senate seat. Johnson says that the scientists who have demonstrated that global warming is the result of human activity are crazy. Johnson said "It's far more likely that it's just sunspot activity or just something in the geologic eons of time." Since Johnson almost has an MBA and is the CEO of a sheet extruder company, his opinion is clearly more credible than the hundreds of scientists who have spent their lives doing research.
Ron Johnson opposed the Child Victims Act, which would allow prosecution of pedophiles when the statue of limitations has run out. He explained that the act "could actually have the perverse effect of leading to additional
victims of sexual abuse if individuals recognize that organizations are
at risk of becoming less likely to report sexual abuse". What?
These are actually two different people. The first guy? He believes in karaoke and he would like to believe in the myth that someone could become a star by singing karaoke. I think I could vote for that Ron Johnson.
The Ron Johnson who is running for Senate believes in his own myths. I don't think I could vote for that guy.
