DNCC CELEBRATES WINNING BET BY SENDING SINGING SUPERDELEGATE IN DONKEY SUIT to RNCC

When the Colorado Avalanche played the Minnesota Wild in the first round of the NHL’s Stanley Cup Playoffs, it spelled disaster for the GOP. That’s because Republican National Convention President and CEO Maria Cino and Democratic National Convention Committee CEO Leah Daughtry agreed to a “friendly wager” between the host cities, Minneapolis and Denver, respectively.

According to the terms of the bet, the losing city’s convention team would send a “taste” of that city’s local delicacy for the winning city’s convention staff to enjoy.

The Avalanche won the series, of course, because they are the best team ever (even though they were swept in the next round) and the Democrats in Denver received an assortment of walleye from the lakes of Minnesota. Umm… am I alone in thinking that might violate the “enjoy” part of the agreement?

But it gets worse.

To celebrate their victory, the Democrats sent the above videoed hideous little donkey mascot to terrorize Minneapolis this week. And terrorize it did.

The best part though, is that the guy in the costume admitted to being a superdelegate. I wonder who he is? My money is on Don Fowler… although I’m pretty sure he’s not a fan of covert, undercover spy missions.

I think the really story here though is that party activists have way, way, way too much time on their hands.
