It's time to vote

Not for Mayor.. that's tomorrow. Today, we open the polls on the Chocolate City Awards. This award goes to the politician responsible for the most ridiculous/entertaining moment of the campaign season. We propose to furnish the winner with his/her very own bag of Hershey's Kisses. If you remember, we opened the nomination process shortly before the primary. You can review the nominees by following the above link. The panel of chocolate judges (me) have chosen the top five nominees and arranged them on the interactive blogflux poll below. They are as follows:

1) Crazy Kimberly Butler and her adventures in Parish Prison... as well as Disneyland.

2) Council District B candidate, Quentin Brown's cute little homemade campaign signs. You can see an example of these by reviewing the nominations post.

3) The "Batt at the Breach" song.

4) Tom Watson's actual use of the phrase "I rebuke you" to Nagin during a debate.. combined with the unlikely fact that Watson later took it back and endorsed C Ray in the runoff.

5) Peggy "Crazy Eyes" Wilson snarling "Don't touch me" at Limp Gorilla Ron Forman during that awful first WWL debate.

Vote Vote Vote!


Honrable Mention/Write-in possibilities:
You may, of course, add your own in comments if you are so disposed.

Good luck to all the nominees who made this race as classically New Orleans as we could have hoped for.
