Hypothetically speaking, if a dead chipmunk on a stick made it through the primaries, and ran for president. Would you vote for it? Why? Why not? Discuss.
Well, a dead chipmunk on a stick would be helluva lot more lively than Bob Dole and Al Gore, and is probably more honest than Bill Clinton or George Bush…
Do you think it’s inability to make speeches would be a handicap, or a benefit to his campaign?
As a political contributor to the Road Kill Party, I would say, “It depends.”
Just how badly does the chipmunk stink? We can’t have a smelly president.
Secondly, how secure is the dead chipmunk with his stick? Will he be vchanging sticks midway through the campaign? Is the stick adequate for supporting a dead chipmunk?
How was this chipmunk killed? Style counts for a lot in presidential campaigns.

Well, it’s starting to get a bit musky. But he does stink to bad yet, but that could be an issue towards the end of the campaign. He would have to get the people to love him before that.
And I’m not entirely sure about the stick, but I do know it’s made of wood.
But who’d be the VP candidate? These things are important, especially if the president is dead before it’s even elected.

The stick is his running mate.
Is this chipmonk on a stick democrat or republican?
Actually, Catrandom, I can’t swear to this, but I think the constitution only covers if the president dies in office. I’m not sure that any contention was made for the president already being dead. Theoritically, they could just shove the stick into a pen holder on the desk in the oval office, and assuming he doesn’t get reelected, remove him in 4 years. Sounds like a plan to me

So then we ARE talking about Al Gore…
Yes, Al Gore will be wearing the chipmunk as a toupee.
Ah, yet another Clinton administration cover-up…
Yeah, right, like the Clinton administration has that many contacts.
Uh-uh, this goes much deeper…
We’re talkin’ Post Office level here, baby!
You say a dead chipmunk on a stick. But just how is that chipmunk attached to the stick?? Isn’t that the real question here?
C’mon now Silver, that’s just sick.
You should be ashamed.
Has the chipmunk had sex with anyone?
Has it picked Dan Quayle as Vice President?
Does the chipmunk like cigars?
Has the chipmunk ever inhaled?
Does the chipmunk have a wife that has political aspirations of her own?
Has the chipmunk ever used helium for recreational purposes?
Is it a celebrity chipmunk? Alivin, Simon or Theodore? They might do better in the polls than your average lay-chipmunk.
Plus, I think a LOT of people would be happy to see any one of those three dead.
