A New Candidate

Here in Virginia, election time approaches. Specifically, we are supposed to be electing a new Governor. Unfortunately, our two candidates are less than stellar, and negative public opinion to both appears to be universal. In good conscience, I have decided that I can't vote for either one. So, it's a good thing that a third candidate has appeared on the horizon to give the others a run for their money.

This new candidate is blind to party politics. He doesn't lie except to get bellyrubs from people, and he loves to kiss the babies, not for any political reason, but because they taste good.

So, here you are Virginians, an alternative candidate for Governor, running on the platform of More Bellyrubs for Ray; the one and only, RAY THE BLIND DOG.

hmmm...."Vote Ray the Blind Dog for Governor." 
HEY WAIT! That's ME!  Uh...what's a Governor?
Did you say that there might be bellyrubs involved?
OK then, let's do this thing.
Do I look Governor-y enough?

      Yeah, then tend to frown on non-US citizens voting in local elections around here.

      He is the perfect candidate BECAUSE he is so photogenic. (and he loves to kiss babies - what a natural!)

    Ray is getting so much support in our 'hood, he might win. BTW, how's England? I also heard Ray practice his acceptance speech yesterday. If you are on Facebook check out Jane Anderson's post about Ray
