PWB Friday Night Open Thread - A Campaign Setback, Followed by a Rally

Andy is heartbroken. His dream VP has been STOLEN from him by that sneaky rascal Joe Biden. Joe Biden, who took so long  to decide, while he — Andy — sent her daily messages imploring her to be his running mate.

Of course, his messages were in “cat,” so there may have been something lost in translation.

The staff at headquarters knew they had to do something to buck up their friend and get him back into the swing of things, so they decided to hold a campaign rally — a real, honest-to-goodness, good old-fashioned, in-person rally. 

They found the perfect location — a gazebo in a city park — and got straight to work hanging the bunting.

They had a marching band!

And a hot-dog-eating contest. Who knew our svelte, elegant Mimi could pack it in like that? Not like that lightweight Sammie, who had to drop out after a scant baker’s dozen.

There was also a raffle.

And several show tunes from Hamilton, because don’t even THINK about holding an event without them these days.

And of course both Andy and Ginger gave speeches. I’d like to say gave speeches to the multitudes, but the fact is that, as an extra precaution in these perilous times of pandemic, the staff did not actually notify anyone that the rally was happening. 

But Andy’s spirits were revived, as were everyone else’s, so mission accomplished!
