Oh, no, Basil has achieved self-awareness, of a sort.
Stephen Colbert takes it up.
Of course, if you saw this, you already know.

Now, one could point out that this is all just sour grapes, since Basil Marceaux is likely to get a higher percentage of the vote than I did, in 2008.
Okay, well, bring it on. I got 2.8% in 2008. If Basil Marceaux beats that today, in the primary...let me ask you, the KPC reader. What should I have to do, what public embarrassment should I suffer, if after making fun of my man Basil he actually does BETTER than I did?
The polls in Tennessee close in 5 hours. Democracy hangs in the balance. Can Mungowitz 2008 beat Marceaux 2010? The voters of Tennessee will decide.
UPDATE: Tennsns must be less sarcastic than I had feared. Basil M got less than 1,000 votes, or about 0.3%. WHEW! I do still think that I will introduce myself as "MichaelMunger.com", so that my website can be michaelmunger.com.com.
UPDATE II: Oh, no! Basil M came on strong late, in those western precincts. He ended up with 3,500 votes, or 0.5%. Still, that is as nothing compared with my manly 2.8%. WOOT!

If I didn't make fun of people who do better than me, I'd probably sleep 22 hours a day.
That said, I suggest you have to introduce yourself Mike Munger Dot Com until a Libertarian wins a congressional seat.
Surely Angus would get out and vote for him if he lived in TN.
If you got five minutes on Colbert, I bet you would break double digits.
It's much, much worse than you imagine, Dear Mungowitz -- Bev Perdue did better than you, too.
I grieve not for Mungowitz, but for democracy. It has fallen.
