ELECT THIS MAN NOW. Mike Weinstein knows what’s up. Music + dancing + you not doing either of those things and only appearing in Ken Burns Effect-ed old photos = landslide victory. You can also download this song for free on his website! “Free of Download song,” as it says. Except clicking that just takes you to a tiny .png image of a music note. Close enough!

STATE LEGISLATOR FEVER

Smells like ‘Stein spirit…
“Video produced by Scott Leigh.” Notice one of the first comments: “Great video! Scott, congratulations on a super production and best of luck to your Dad in his campaign!”
Clearly, like a young Nicolas Coppola, Scott felt he needed to change his last name to avoid the perception of riding his father’s coattails. Or maybe he’s ashamed of his Jewish heritage HMMMM?
This is exactly how Lou Pearlman got started, but he was raping Disney employees, instead of Up With People members. Ahh, simpler times!
from 1:50-1:52 where the girl does something with her boobs is HAWT.
Oh my — I feel like I was just at some parent-chaperoned alternative beach week party, without the trucked-in sand.
Somewhere in Unitarian Heaven, John Adams is weeping…
[re=613729]joezoo[/re]: From the production values of the vid, “Scott Leigh” must be his porn name.
[re=613731]rmontcal[/re]: Needs more 1:50-1:52!
The Wham vibe is strong with one.
This looks like a Joey Lawrence music video.
Peter Boyle and Jeffrey Tambor had a baby?
The opening baseline felt like Footloose and it just got worse from there.
[re=613731]rmontcal[/re]: Need animated GIF of this NOW!
I wonder if the band made their debut at the Duval County teabagger rally. Their boy representing District 19 was there.

Republican? Really? With those phat jams?
As Winston Churchill said: “Democracy is the worst form of government … except for all the others … except in Florida, where it is the worst form of government.”
I just wanted to say you guys should be ashamed. Epilepsy is nothing to laugh at.
[re=613751]Sharkey[/re]: [re=613741]ph7[/re]: [re=613731]rmontcal[/re]: Does “something” with her boobs indeed!
[re=613748]Jar Jar Was a Senator[/re]: That’s harsh. And funny, because it’s true!
District 9 was awesome! When he’s in the mech and uses a gravity gun to blow away some dude?
Oh.. District 19?
Shit.
The New KKKids on the Block.
As a citizen of Jacksonville I can not even express how beyond embarrassing this is… and that’s saying a lot for this town.
Mike would’ve been live in the video if he felt it would get him elected.
Note that this is the first video posted on Wonkette in quite a while that had non-white people in it. Particularly since he’s running as a Republican. I suppose he can’t help being liberal in some ways given his last name…
Shit, now that’s gonna be stuck in my head all day.
(mike, mike, mike – mike weinstein…)
For the record, this song is still in my head.
[re=613785]eyegoneblack[/re]: [re=613787]ArkansasFred[/re]: QUICK! http://www.youtube.com/user/katyperrymusic?blend=1&ob=4#p/a/f/0/CwE-SLnLkqY
We would be blissfully ignorant if you didn’t post this stuff, Stuef.
I enjoyed the triple pirhouette and the boob shake. The rest…not so much. An earlier Wonketeer had it right: gay as hell…
I liked how they went straight from the shot of the little black girl (while telling her she was uneducated) to the police car. Subtle, Mike Weinstein. Super subtle.
[re=613734]SayItWithWookies[/re]: I was thinking it felt Jesus Camp-y. That diddy would work well changing the chorus to “Jee-jee-jee, sus Christ!”
Moar visors plz. Also.
[re=613742]CrunchyKnee[/re]: [re=613729]joezoo[/re]: Mike will be your father figure, put your tiny…
[re=613731]rmontcal[/re]: [re=613741]ph7[/re]: BEWARE TEH DEMON B00BZ! 1:50 NEVAR FORGET!!1
He’s a Republican?!!! But he seems so … groovy.
The funny thing is I watched it, quickly listened to something else to cleanse my musical cortex, and I swear I don’t know what political party he’s from. I hope he floods the airwaves with that crap and still loses.
Zack Attack.
Original lyrics: “Mike, Mike, Mike Weinstein – got a poker up his ass and he’s squeaky clean.”
But the focus group didn’t like it.
[re=613755]watershed[/re]: It’s the “Michael Steele” effect.
But seriously, those pictures of Mike Weinstein scream “sex offender”.
Pretty sure this flies in the (balls to the) face of his vote for the Marriage Protection Amendment.
[re=613842]DemmeFatale[/re]: Slater, masturbator!
Shades of Hillary 4 U and Me if U ask me
WTF?
I didn’t really have to wait until the end to learn he’s a republican, did I?
Give this kid a few months with Maurice Starr and watch out world! We may have a new Tiffany on our hands!
It’s kind of Glee-gay for a Republican isn’t it?
I like how it was more rhymey than rappy, more 80′s than 10′s. But when the singer starts in about Mike being a politician we can trust, the black guy on keyboards plays those riffs that seem to comment on what is being said, like don’t believe him when he says we can trust him. They should know better than to put a black keyboardist.
Basically a rip off of the theme song from Nickelodian’s “Kids Incorporated.”

As a lilly-white, whiter than whitebread, whiter than mayonaise-smeared-all-over-a-polar-bear-in-a-snowstorm, white male, I gotta say that was one whole heckuva lotta pop-rock-hip-hop AWESOME!
And if I was a bisexual with a thing for moderately chubby people hiding their lack of fitness in baggy shirts and shorts, I’d be making sweet, hot love to each and every participant in that video, save Mike.
But Mike, if you want my vote, you gotta get down there on the dance floor and start breakin’ with the rest of them.
That’s all well and good, but what is Congressman Weinstein’s stance on whether Kelly should take Zack or Slater to the Sadie Hawkins?
I don’t know what’s more out of control in that song: the fresh groove or the horrible Auto-Tune.
Probably the groove.
Also, “Mike Weinstein” is eerily similar, at least musically, to Suzanne Vega’s “No Cheap Thrill.” Do I smell a lawsuit in Mike’s future?
This reminded me of Summer Heights High.
This can not be real.
[re=613751]Sharkey[/re]: STILL WAITING!!!!!
