I giggled when I heard "Neck-ey."
But "Granpa Waddle" had me almost on the floor.

3. It's just a reference to... |
|
...his overall blandly handsome face. Larry's a bland name, hence Handsome Larry.
Later.

7. He's the only candidate they haven't bashed yet |
|
I think atleast some on the staff took a real liking to him.
He's also the candidate that is shown last and by himself(which makes him more noticable) on their "road from the whitehouse" graphic

5. I'm surprised "Coward Dean" isn't out there yet. |
|
Pigbaugh is calling Dean 'Nikita', which over the heads of his audience.

Can someone explain the nicknames? I don't get how they came up with them except for Kucinich. Neck-ey? Kerry is frowno? Kerry never frowns. What's a waddle? And what do they mean by moonface?

That's what seperates us Dems from the repukes--we know how to laugh at ourselves.
