Deadspin
Tomorrow's a pretty big primary day for the Dems, what with Texas, Ohio and, to a much lesser extent Rhode Island and Vermont, going a long way to determining who the nominee will be. With Greg Oden and Leigh Steinberg recently publicly throwing their support behind Barack Obama, we're once again confronted with the notion that we're supposed to care what athletes', or for that matter any celebrity's, views on politics are. I mean, other than Charles Barkley, of course. Hold forth, Sir Charles.
That's it for me until this weekend. Tomorrow is the return of your man-king Leitch. Perhaps he has returned with fresh bananas from warmer climes.

I'm voting for whoever is giving out the miniature American flags.
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.
Who's more now?
All I know is that Obama promises hobos and change.
Four whole days without Simianpsons references? Fie!
Abortions for some, miniature American flags for others!
Hillary doesn't need an athletic supporter, or does she?
If I were registered to vote I'd send these clowns a message by staying home on election day and dressing up like a clown!
/how about a Futurama reference?
Seriously Christmas Ape, do you just have an entire folder's worth of monkey-related Simpsons stills? I mean, it's awesome, I'm just wondering if you're going to need more fodder as a new weekend daddy...
I think a monkey could run the country. Unfortunately Bush isn't running
What about Vermont?
An ape with a blog is like a mule with a spinning wheel. Nobody knows where he got it, and damned if he knows what to do with it!
wait- this system actually lets the human gene pool residing in Ohio play a deciding role in something that seriously affects the rest of us? not a good idea at all
@44 in a Row:
haha, mule!
@Yostal: There is enough source material to last a thousand weekends.
Obama wins Texas. Hillary wins Ohio. Ted Strickland will be nobody's running mate.
& if Obama's smart, he'll tab Sibelius for VP, anyway, & won't even have TS on the loooong list.
"Abortions For Some DUAN For Others"
This implies DUANers are pro-life, which can't be true, because we don't have any.
Why is Grodd running in Springfield?
thanks, ohio!
/2004
/are we still doing the / thing? i can't keep up with what the kool kids are doing...
I hate every ape I see, from Chimpan-A to Chimpan-Z
No you'll never make a monkey out of me
Don't blame me I voted for Ko- @throwbot: D'OH!
@Rob Iracane: I am mollified. I am mollified.
Welcome to the Ohio Democratic Debate! Let's get started - the first question is from Mr. Michael Cooper of Berea.
"Would the candidates please state their position on First Amendment rights for library patrons?"
@josereyes.theroof admits Gawker Media always wins: But after he landed that plane and saved all of those people and got back together with Elaine, shouldn't hat be enough on the credentials front?
Don't worry Ape I'm sure you'll get Mr. and Mrs. Bananas vote, as well as Humphrey Boa-Gart, and Snowball I.
You'd be well served to leave this stuff off of your site.
@Yostal: I'd prefer the all-Muslim Obama/Roger Murdock slate.
@Wolf Blitzer: 2004 is on the line for you, Mr. Blitzer.
@Its The Beer Talking: The pro-frottage candidate would get my vote.
I'm in favor of whoever is against twisted testicles.
@josereyes.theroof admits Gawker Media always wins: The problem with Vice President Murdock is that while some kids think he's the greatest, their fathers will say that he doesn't work hard enough on defense, and that lots of times, he doesn't even run down court, and that he won't really try... except during the playoffs.
you'd be well served if you ordered a vanilla milkshake from a buxom young waitress named Sandy.
@Chief Wahoo: so, not a Hillary supporter, eh?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaahhh... ah.
Somewhere in Berea tomorrow, Mike Cooper will be voting for the only combat vet on the ballot.
Fuck change. My life is great. Status Quo! Status Quo!
McCain '08!
The politics of failure have failed!
Allow me to reiterate my support for Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho in '08
@Innings Eater: sorry, son.. mccain is ALSO the candidate of change.
[www.cnn.com]
indeed, it's all about change. you're getting change.
looks like yer SOL.
what do the chosen people think of Obama? should i ask KSK?
@supermike4ever: SHIT
Change for some, status quo for others? Can we meet half way on this? Incremental change, with a tinge of skeptical conservatism!*
*Not a good bumper sticker
@supermike4ever:
In fact, if Giuliani had said "change" as much as he said "9/11", be might still be in the race.
@Wolf Blitzer:no shit. they should let us floridians decide!
he might still be in the race.
/Shit!
@josereyes.theroof admits Gawker Media always wins:Cat Stevens/dumbarabname could write his campaign theme song
I'm waiting for Gabbo. He'll tell us what to do.
@Its The Beer Talking: Carl Monday looks on with keen interest
i'm voting for Nader. again.
Is this story related?
Monkey in custody after biting three people in Washington
@supermike4ever: Ralph Nader might be the single most holier-than-thou person in the world, regardless of his political views.
@Whitey Fisk: and this one?
A long trek for ancient mini monkeys
Thumb-sized monkey predecessors migrated from Siberia to North America more than 55.8 million years ago, according to research published today.

MINI MONKEYS!!!!!!
Is Nibbles on a dinner break?
Can there be a third category... abortions and DUAN for the rest?
@MENACEIISOBRIETY: Yusuf Islam. Basically, Joe [insert name of faith Joe Practices].

/my real name is Andy
/hopefully it won't end up in Iracane's file
/shits pants
@chilltown:
Is that include Bono?
You know, I think the Emmys should adopt the CFBA principle that if you won last year, you can't win this year. It seems like a reasonable standard, even if your better work may have been this year.
You'd have to be a fool to vote for Senator McKang, he'll have us building a ray gun to destroy a country we've never heard of.
@UkraineNotWeak:
*including
@UkraineNotWeak: Yes. Bono doesn't even win his division, rock band front man, that trophy going to Eddie Vedder.
