Politico Slapfight Go

Now that the futuristic death robot has been elected Governor of California, it’s time to get back to the real political issues facing the 2004 presidential candidates:

Kerry Accuses Dean of Liking the Yankees

BOSTON – Massachusetts Senator John Kerry is again challenging presidential rival Howard Dean’s allegiance to Red Sox Nation.

With Boston preparing to face archrival New York in the American League Championship Series, Kerry said Tuesday that if New York beats Boston in the best-of-seven series that begins Wednesday, he’ll send New England clam chowder to Dean’s campaign. He wants Manhattan chowder from Dean if Boston wins.

Kerry last month accused Dean, the former Vermont governor and current front-runner for the Democratic nomination, of being a Yankees fan.

Dean, a New York native, called the accusation insulting, and insisted he backs Boston.

And people wonder why I’m cynical.
