Once upon a time there was a gargantuan CNN anchoress who, for five wonderful, lucrative days way back in 2008, eated your Wonkette. (These were in the days when large corporations still paid money to blogs in exchange for advertising.) That lady is married to Dan Senor, a youngish douche who was once spokesman for the Coalition Provisional Authority, which brought instant peace and prosperity to Iraq following the invasion. The point is, Dan Senor is maybe thinking of challenging an assortment of other known douches for Kirsten Gillibrand’s Senate seat.
A Manhattan voter received a phone call last night, asking his opinion about Senor and his wife, CNN anchor Campbell Brown. And one-plugged in New York Republican told TPMmuckraker he hears that Senor may be meeting with “potential money people,” in advance of a possible Senate bid.
Senor did not respond to a request for comment.
Haha, and you losers thought that Harold Ford sucked.
Senate Run For Bush Adviser Dan Senor? [TPMMuckraker]

People… potential money people…. are the luckiest people in the woooorrrld!
Vote for Me and I’ll Let You Smell My Finger!
Pros: He’s a nice looking fellow
Cons: Worked with the Coalition Provisional Authority
He doesn’t have a chance.
Just think, he could get down 70%-30% in the polls and still claim with a straight face that he’s winning.
Somehow, though, I think the strategy of forcing New York Democrats into giant naked man piles might backfire.
Senor in senate = Campbell Brown retires or moves to Fox. Zero sum?
Does this guy have enough brains to fill up that enormous head, ?
He’s already got experience helping explain away losing bajillions of dollars through corrupt and flawed contracts. He should be a shoe-in.
He needs more lobbyist whoring experience though.
I hope Kristen Gillenbrand doesn’t mind being referred to as “the brutal dictator” in every sentence.
[re=519533]iburl[/re]: After the money people, he will have to spend some time with Teh Lizard People, who really run things in NY.
Campbell deserves so much better.
I think he’s better suited for the CIA, he kind of looks like “agent smith” from the Matrix.
[re=519537]JMP[/re]: As an NY Dem, I say, let me be the judge of that.
I’ve lost all respect for Ms. Brown.
Letting this twerp crawl on top of her gives me the willys.
Every pot has a lid I guess.
In a civilized society, after “Baghdad Dans” stint with the IPA, he would have composed a nice Haiku about cluster bombs and then opened up his guts with a pairing knife an instant before Donald Rumsfeld lopped off his head with a segment of a downed Blackhawks rotor blade. We, however, are a degenerate culture beset by corporate barbarians so….Senator Mr Campbell Brown would wouldn’t even cause a ripple in our political toilet bowl.
In Spanish, he would be Mr. Mister, si?
[re=519554]rocktonsammy[/re]: If this guy gets to do Campbell Brown, I get to do Claudia Schiffer.
Sorry, but he just has weasel written all over him.
[re=519556]dijetlo[/re]: Luckily for Gillibrand, simply repeatedly referring to himas “Former Bush advisor Dan Senor” should be enough to ensure he has no chance. People may have short memories, but not that short.
“Once upon a time there was a gargantuan CNN anchoress who, for five wonderful, lucrative days way back in 2008, eated your Wonkette.”
This is before Wonkette became addicted to the Siemens, of course.
[re=519561]Rajul[/re]: So you think that, after he returned from Iraq, he had to take his broken wings and learn to fly again?
[re=519571]JMP[/re]: I think I love you.
Why would Republicans vote for someone who’s married to a member of the liberal media elite? They just wouldn’t. Republicans, having been conquered by the Teabaggers, prefer no bias, no bull.
Campbell Brown, having graduated college to spend several years living off her father’s money, skied around Colorado. Dan Senor, who married her father’s money, is thus too elite, by marriage, for this job. What New York needs in the Senate is someone with a truck.
What choices you NYers all have. I envy you. *snerk*
[re=519561]Rajul[/re]:
No, Señor Rajul!
As you see, the Spanish word “Señor” is spelled with an ñ and not an n.
We’re talking manzanas y naranjas here.
See! about yon drear and wretched war lies thy love, Senor!
As far as hard-to-fathom power couples go, his appearance is less likely to scare children as opposed to say, Mary Matalin or Alan Greenspan.
Well, Wonkette, you’ve totally screwed the pooch now, CNN-ad-revenue-wise.
[re=519570]Vulpes82[/re]: But I am looking forward to the next eruption of Siemens all over my screen.
I really prefer Dan Junior.
He always looks like he’s just had a bad haircut, and it needs a week or two to grow out.
Bomb the American electoral system from space.
Senor – Ford ’12
Campbell got the short end of the stick on that deal.
One plus: She enjoys making popcorn, snuggling up with the cat and showing movies on his forehead.
Senor, Senor
Can you tell me where we’re headin’
Lincoln County Road, or Armageddon?
If you worked for the government (and especially the CPA) and were mentioned in Imperial Life in the Emerald City, there’s a 99% likelihood that you should never be in a position of responsibility over others’ lives ever again. Dan Senor — being Paul Bremer’s Karen Hughes — decorated Dubya’s massive cronyist incompetence with the flimsiest of window dressing, and probably couldn’t sell roadkill to a tree full of vultures. As a legislator he’d make Scott Brown look like Tip O’Neill.
She’s hot, he needs to loose some pounds. … um, er. maybe its the other way around.
Whats a Senor??
is that post Muslin??
Why are they all so terrible at deliberation when that is literally their JOB? My public speaking students can speak extemporaneously with more comfort and clarity. It’s like watching a NASCAR champion back through their garage door, hit the family dog and then stall out on the street.
[re=519641]doxastic[/re]: Goshdarn, wrong thread…
but does he have a truck, with a flag-pin on it?
[re=519566]JMP[/re]: win
srsly, *flattest* head ever. can’t trust dudes with even semi-flat heads.
[re=519670]sleepy[/re]:
Campbell likes a flat head. She can set her mint julep on top of it while Danny practices his linguistics. Ifyaknowhatamean…
“Is there anything this woman can’t buy?”
Good taste in men…?
[re=519621]norbizness[/re]: Only way to be sure.
Campbell’s pops was a politician as well. James Brown was Louisiana insurance commissioner, one three straight insurance commishes from the Big Easy who ended his political career going away to the Big House.
Needs more AIPAC.
[re=519536]Terry[/re]:
More cons: Bush-mouth piece, Mossad spy, Canadian.

[re=519678]Scaggsvillain[/re]: He’s a Republican, though; they won’t do that, because girl parts are icky, and anyway sex is supposed to be only about the subservient woman pleasuring the man.
[re=519566]JMP[/re]: “People may have short memories, but not that short.”
And just what did you have for lunch a week ago Tuesday?
Campbell Brown fell for Dan Senor. That is living proof that no matter who you are or what you have done, there is someone in this world who will think you are wonderful.
[re=519709]McDuff[/re]: A cheesesteak and cheese fries. Yet I am somehow not fat.
[re=519539]Larry Fine[/re]: Camel. That is all.
Senor Winces ees not s’awright. S’awright?
[re=519570]Vulpes82[/re]: Like most DC gossips, Wonkette is totally gay for pay.
This is my district and I can tell you, the people of this district do not like outsiders coming in to tell them how to vote and how to live.
Bush was not much liked up here and I doubt that anybody associated with him will be either.
[re=519635]Gorillionaire[/re]: +1 for Dylan ref.
I suppose the Senate Republican Closet… I mean, Cloak-room… has room for one more.
I move we start making less fun of Kirsten Gilleleighbrand, on account of she’s all that’s standing between the Douchebag Harold Ford, (who shot Jesse James, I think) and this evil Nazi wannabe.
Shouldn’t be difficult to create ads that contrast what he was sayin’ and what was actually happenin’ in Iraq at the time.
Fail.
[re=519729]Aurelio[/re]: True. Even John Wayne Gacy had a woman that was trying to marry him before he got his just desserts.
[re=519594]Scaggsvillain[/re]: Señor Senor?
[re=519696]S.Luggo[/re]: So Canada has gifted us here in the Lower 48 with BoBo Brooks, Mark Steyn and Dan Senor? So much for the Northern “good neighbour”.
[re=519729]Aurelio[/re]: I’m reminded of the corollary every time I see a beautiful woman. No matter how many miles of broken, burning glass you’d be willing to crawl over to get some of that, somewhere there is a guy who is just sick of her shit and getting ready to dump her/go screw around on her.
It never fails.
That’s why ugly girls are best.
They’re like Avis…they try harder.
That could explain how Squire Senor managed to nail the Brown.
It would be refreshing if for once, someone thinking of running for office would meet with voters first (Mr and Mrs Main Street) instead of the moneybags…
Oh Christ. Campbell, how could you? And a fellow Canadian? The world is a nightmare…
