I personally do not feel that a vampire should be running for Governor. No, IRS agent would be a more suitable job. However the idea of executing convicted murders and child molesters personally by impaling them on a wooden pole has merit here. Comment?

Vampire seeks governor's job

MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) - Minnesota voters, who eight years ago elected a former professional wrestler as their governor, may find a self-proclaimed vampire on the ballot for the office this year.

"Politics is a cut-throat business," said Jonathan "The Impaler" Sharkey, who said he plans to announce his bid for governor Friday on the ticket of the Vampyres, Witches and Pagans Party.

Like Jesse "The Body" Ventura, who was elected governor as an independent in 1998, the 41-year-old Sharkey once was a wrestler, although he spent his time "The Unholiest of Kings: Tarantula" on obscure professional circuits.

"I'm a Satanist who doesn't hate Jesus," Sharkey told Reuters. "I just hate God the Father."

However, he claims to respect all religions and if elected, will post "everything from the Ten Commandments to the Wicca Reed" in government buildings.

Sharkey also pledged to execute convicted murders and child molesters personally by impaling them on a wooden pole outside the state capitol.

Sharkey told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that he's a vampire "just like you see in the movies and TV."

"I sink my fangs into the neck of my donor ... and drink their blood," he said, adding that his donor is his wife, Julie.

The field for the governor's race in Minnesota is far from complete. Republican incumbent Tim Pawlenty is widely expected to seek another term in November and his Democratic opponent has not been determined.

Sharkey said he planned to announce his candidacy Friday -- the 13th -- because that was "my lucky number."

Campaign promises are almost never lived up to ;)
 
There's a Minnesota writer who HAS vampires in positions of power in her stories set in Minneapolis/St. Paul. MaryJanice Davidson She's written a couple novels and been in a few anthologies I'd enjoyed.

The first story I read from her made me laugh because it was stared out in Detroit and moved to Minnesota -- same as the reader! :)

Wouldn't "idiot" be shorter?
 
Why not have a vampire for governor?

It's not like our president doesn't "suck" too.
 
I'm not particularly comfortable with the name of his party, lumping Witches and Pagans (both genuine religions) in with 'Vampyres'. However, there have been worse joke candidates.

Something like "I don't hate you, I just hate your toes, elbows, and intestines."

Actually, the statement is grammatically correct. However, there is obviously something wrong with Sharkey.
 
He appears to be at least a small bit truthful, or at least straightforward. That puts him far and ahead of 99.9% of the refuse that litters offices at that level and higher. (i.e. ALL politiions at or above that level.)
