What do I have to do to get Alan Grayson to run for the U.S. Senate?
Orlando-area congressman Alan Grayson talked healthcare reform and Dick Cheney’s Obama treason talk on “Hardball” today, and dropped two of the classic one-liners of the year, proving once again why he is a rarity in politics today: an authentic guy who’s sure enough of himself to say exactly what he thinks (and rich enough not to care if he pisses off the corporate money-men.) The Grayson liners: “Dick Cheney, STFU,” and regarding Dubya kissing, holding hands and skipping through the flora with his Saudi prince? “Maybe if he’d gotten to second base, gas would be $2 a gallon.” Watch the entire segment (about 5 minutes, and well worth it):

Run, Alan, run! … please??? In the meantime, if you’ve got some spare change, donate it to Grayson’s re-election. At least those lucky bastards in Orlando will get two more years of his service. As for me, my Congressman is Lincoln Diaz-Balart. (sigh)
