Semi-OT: The California Gov. Recall Race

[johnnya2k3]

Hey, why not have Richard Dawson, Louie Anderson, and Richard Karn run on the \"Family Feud\" party (Ray Combs might pull a Mel Carnahan)?

On the TTTT ballot...Well, Joe Garagiola's the only name on there, since Bud Collyer and Garry Moore are dead, Robin Ward is Canadian, John O'Hurley has a show on UPN this fall, and for obivous reasons, Lynn Swann and Alex Trebek.

At least Trebek would make a great Prime Minister of Canada.

 I'm not sure what's so \"obvious\" about Swann and Trebek not running in this fanciful thread, unless you mean that they've already got steady jobs they wouldn't give up.  Being Canadian is no more of an obstacle than Schwartzenegger being Austrian; it's only a presidential candidate who's constitutionally required to be native-born.  And since people are going to vote for Arnold because of the image he's projected on the screen, why wouldn't people vote for Alex because they see him as a smart and decisive leader?
