A few days back SPicy received a campaign update from Pakou Hang over in Ward 6.

For a mere fifty cents a day over what was then 10 days left, you could answer the call of the campaign to fund Pakou in her 10 day muffin eating marathon. The campaign sent out a plea for more money to help send Pakou "over the top."  The campaign missed a golden opportunity to call on supporters to help send Pakou over the "muffin top."

At first SPicy thought that Pakou had scored a major endorsement from Sally Struthers and the Feed the Children Foundation, instead Pakou is soliciting donations to feed herself.

Lets say 10 people answered the fifty cents a day call, and Pakou had a cup of coffee and a muffin for each one...

 

You know readers, this is about the most juvenile tactic SPicy has encountered in all fifty years of SPicy's involvement. SPicy is sorry to have subjected you to reading this.

City Council Member Dan Bostrom should donate $500 in gift certificates for muffins and coffee for Pakou.  Then he can just sit back while Pakou does her campaigning in locally owned neighborhood coffee shop featuring organic gluten free muffins while she ponders what she is going to do after the election.

The DFL left her hanging weeks ago focusing their efforts on Wards 1 and 5.  Now she wants supporters to buy her muffins. If the voters of Ward 6 decide to send Pakou to City Hall, SPicy will eat a big old bran muffin, and you know what's next.

Stay tuned for SPicy's election day predictions and fallout analysis.  Election day will be busy as SPicy intends on doing some exit polling and keeping a close eye out for disenchanted voters.
