Title: Al vs. Sam Spade
Post by: Joe Republic on May 28, 2009, 09:21:13 PM
I should think that the outcome of this poll should be obvious, but we'll wait for the poll to expire before this can become apparent.

Oh, my, a hilarious race!

I actually think Sam would tear him a new one or it would be close. People like Sam's attitude and loathe Al's nonsense.

I have much to say about this race, but I'll post much longer about this later on. With a graph, perhaps.

I'd vote for Al, I guess.

I've no doubt there'll be a lot we agree on about this in many respects, but we'll continue this later.

Al/Spade.

Spade carries West Virginia.

Al attracts a large following, but his socialist tendencies and use of obscure Welsh words alienate most of the American public.  During the debates, Spade's vague answers and calls to "be patient" fail to inspire confidence.  In spite of this, Spade leads in the polls until he makes an off-hand comment to a group of hecklers, calling them "f****ts".  In the end, Spade wins the election by a decent margin, while losing 100% of the gay vote.  Al returns to Wales, living with the indignity of losing nearly every precinct in West Virginia and Kentucky.

Spade would clearly win; that's without question.

While I like Spade (though me and him would probably hate each other if we ever met in real life) I would have to go with Al.

Guys, you're not meant to make such definitive statements in this thread.

My beard is a bit like that now, though the moustache is nowhere near as impressive.

Mine was almost like that but I just trimmed it today.

This should break roughly along party lines.


Title: Re: Al vs. Sam Spade
Post by: Keystone Phil on June 01, 2009, 11:27:21 AM

Yeah, I agree.

Established, sane political party members go for Sam. The United Mine Workers That Nobody Cares About party members should still go for their hero.

There are no such parties in the US so it's a moot point.

Al can't run for President here so all of this is a moot point.  ;)

But Sam could run for the UK Parliament as soon as he got the right passport - or the US joins the Commonwealth in an attack of Obamaliberal guilt.

Al/Al. Sam Spade is a troll.

I like Sam personally (especially his taste in authors) but I have to go with Al, who is probably my best Forum friend and has been for years.

LOL. You're a mental midget compared to Sam.

Trolls don't have to stupid to be trolls(not that I am saying Sam is).

Post by: jokerman on June 04, 2009, 12:01:12 AM
Al/Al though I'm not entirely sure about the latter.  Sam would certainly be much more comfortable with some of the more dirtier aspects of politics (not a criticism; more power to him).

I think I know what's happening here. You have to be watching very closely, and most people aren't picking up on it. There's a few more signs I'll be watching for before I say more though.

f****ts.
