I picture you at the state line holding a pitchfork, personally poking it toward John McCain, standing by the side of the road in front of his "straight talk express" bus (a minor detail being the word "straight" on the sign is hanging down crooked, like it lost a nail).

"We don't need your kind in these parts--take it back on down to Texas and Georga where you come from," you say, and, seeing all your friends standing behind you, he assesses the situation for a moment, and turns around to climb back on the bus, which turns around, and drives off as all of Michigan's Democrats give you a high-five, as the band strikes up a rockin' version of "Happy Days are Here Again."

Yeah, go ahead and be proud.

"yo, bad rubbish--- good riddance!"

PATROCLUS:  A good riddance.

By "straight," McCain means "heterosexual."
