EXCLUSIVE: BARACK OBAMA PICKS WALTER MONDALE FOR VEEP

Wonkette’s associate editor — me! — has received his text message from Barack Obama before anyone else and can exclusively report that Minnesota’s Walter Mondale, who may or may not be alive, will become America’s second black vice president. WHERE IZ MY REPORTIN ACCOLADES BABY? Wait… Walter Mondale? Oh. Oh fuck you, Layne.

    Now you know how McCain felt when someone telegraphed him that McKinley had picked William Jennings Bryan.

  4. jinmoom says at 3:14 pm, August 20th, 2008

    Mondale will guarantee that Obama will win Minnesota!

  5. shortsshortsshorts says at 3:17 pm, August 20th, 2008

    jinmoom: And lose in many, many other ways.

    Just got a call from one of the friends I pranked. Hilarious. She was away from her computer and wanted me to check the obama site for her…I’d sent in Paris Hilton (realy originalz) as Barry’s vp.

    jinmoom: Scratch that. He will still get the elderly bitterz vote.

  8. This is so wicked, evil and demented. I loves it.

    Haha, well I know now why we’ll be getting crappy snarks from the Wonkette staff the rest of the day. They’ll be too busy thinking up creative VPs to text to each other and all their friends.

    Aaron Burr for veeples.

    Hey, the unisex girl is wearing an awful lot of clothes for an American Apparel ad.

  12. Arugula and Fritz. Makes sense.

    tunamelt: How do you know it’s a girl? Hence ‘unisex’.

    obfuscator: You just made me want a peanut butter sandwich real bad.

    Is Ed Muskie still alive?

  15. Ken Layne says at 3:50 pm, August 20th, 2008

    tunamelt: Click through, they’re all basically naked and have like one arm half covered by a shirt.

  16. Ken Layne says at 3:52 pm, August 20th, 2008

    … answering the age-old question, “How can you possibly make an oxford shirt look slutty and trashy?”

  17. Quietly says at 4:01 pm, August 20th, 2008

    Obama + Samuel L. Jackson

    A match made in heaven.

  18. WagTehGod says at 4:09 pm, August 20th, 2008

    Ken Layne: I clicked, no n00dz! Damn you Layne and your click-for-profit ways!

    According to deadoraliveinfo.com Mondale is alive and 80 years old. Funniest part: when I searched for Mondale two links came up, Walter and Geraldine Ferraro! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

  20. RobPetrified says at 4:41 pm, August 20th, 2008

    Did the same scientists who replaced Dick Cheneys heart
    with a mechanical one made of coal also bring Walter Mondale back to life?
    If Kryptonite will kill Superman,
    and if Peace will kill Darth Cheney,
    Then what, pray tell, is Mr. Mondale’s Achilles heel?

  21. Baseproduct says at 6:15 pm, August 20th, 2008

    RobPetrified: Electoral votes.

  22. rockstarjoe says at 9:25 pm, August 20th, 2008

    I bet Caroline Kennedy picks herself.

  23. freppish says at 4:39 am, August 21st, 2008

    mondale is still alive, he teaches a class at U of M Twin Cities and he looks super old.

  24. TGY: She’s a wonder woman, looks like a woman but you have to wonder?
