I have no sympathy for crabs. 'Specially if they’re dipped in melted butter. ---

Hmmm… an anti-crab platform… I think we can link Dead Crab to illegal horse racing scams. Check this out: [Tip On A Dead Crab](http://http1.smartpages.com/sil/smartpages/__1ccf7c080dssB17Hpno/v/cityguides/ca/san_diego/access/sd/bybook.html) > [@](#): > > \*\* > Tip on a Dead Crab, by William Murray (Viking, 1984).

> [@](#): > > ‘A crab in the white house would be like a fish out of water. Vote Mammal in the upcoming election!’ Hmmmm, could work. How about “There haven’t been crabs in the White House since Lewinsky, do we really want to go \*_there_ again? Vote Chipmo(u)nk!” Oooh stylized spelling! How 'bout we start using the last name Chipmounk? Nah, looks too French. As for this KimKatt, I dunno. How can we be sure she is loyal to The Cause? Can you think of anyway she may be able to prove her loyalty to us–I mean to Dead Chipmonk? Think, think, think… ---
