If Tila Tequila Runs for Office in 2010, Blame Barack Obama
Look what Barack Obama has gone and done with all his handsome hoping and multi-million dollar messaging and cool fonts. He has created a living hell for people like Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), an old stick-in-the-mud who risked his life to end segregation and spent several decades fighting for civil rights.
Thanks to the big B.O., Lewis is staring down the barrel of his toughest challenge yet…
Today, Lewis faces his first primary challengers since 1992, a pair of candidates who are promoting the "change" mantra of Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign and have organized their campaigns around a single, not-so-subtle message: Lewis's support for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) over Obama in the presidential primary.
Lewis is one of three House Democratic incumbents in Georgia who should be enjoying an easy run through today's primary but instead find themselves battling a wave of younger black politicians emboldened by Obama's success and intent on succeeding their elders in choice political posts.
Yeah! Change! And much as scissors beats paper, change beats old, so you square incumbent types better step aside. Especially if you supported She Whose Name Must Not Be Spoken. There's a new wind blowing, and it is picking up some remarkable debris, like a former Real World cast member…
In Georgia and elsewhere, some of the initial targets have been lawmakers who backed Clinton instead of the first black candidate to clinch a major party's presidential nomination. In Brooklyn, Rep. Edolphus Towns, 73, a Clinton supporter, faces opposition in a Sept. 9 Democratic primary from community activist Kevin Powell, 42, who once was a star on MTV's "Real World."
A commitment to bad denim and picking fights with Eric Nies. You know what that is?
Change you can totally believe in.

There's no more repellent woman on the planet than that skank Tila Tequila.
I can't wait for her State of the Union address.
I love Tila, she would do a great job in Congress!
she cant run for presidency cuz shes not native born or at least 25 years old. ..
but she can go for any other position in congress if she want to tho.

"she cant run for presidency cuz shes not native born or at least 25 years old. ..

um you have to be 35 years old, not 25.
and she is older than 25, so that's a double wrong-o.
barack obama isn't a native born but he's the new president. triple wrong-o.
and by the way to the writer of this article:
she would run for office in 2012, not 2010.
it's 2008 now plus 4 years = 2012.
:]
reply to chris
i didnt catch that that typo…. i course i know u have to be 35.. obviously.
btw.. obama is native born.. he was born in Hawaii.
umm Hawaii is part of the united states…its one of our states…so no he was not born as a native and he was born and raised in chicago..but okay
Actually Obama was born and raised in Honolulu…just down the street from where I live with his mom and Grandma…He didn't move to the mainland to chicago until later where he learned about politics…I believe Tila is a very strong woman and would make a wonderful congress woman
i would vote for you as the next president tila.you are a good person too.i would love to see you run the world if i live that long.
i would vote for tila tequila for president next time.the girl is great and she cares for people just like obama does.
