Sup QCI-ders. Here’s the most crappyist update in politics. Because it’s Peanut Butter Caucus Countdown Time!!!! It’s peanut butter jelly, peanut butter jelly, peanut butter jelly and a baseball bat!

THAT’S WHAT WE ALWAYS DO THIS TIME OF YEAR – If you haven’t figured out why politicians are clogging your inbox last week with requests for money, the FEC 1st Quarter deadline was yesterday. That’s right. Politicians begging you for money so they can smack their opponents upside the head with a 2 by 4… then spend your tax dollars on important things like a Monkey Bubble by Pella or a weather station for Punxsutawney Phil.

All jokes and sarcasm a side… it’s a key point of the 2008 cycle. Why you ask? Well my fine feathered friends, we will get to see a true gage of support for these campaigns, money. Unfortunately, it takes a ton of money to not only be a viable campaign… but one that can answer attacks via mail, radio and TV. Stay tuned QCI-ders… once these reports are public, the speculation and Monday Night Quarterbacking will begin.

BOSWELL IS IN TROUBLE – Pretty bold little headline, right? The incumbent is in the knife fight of his life. Why is this article even an issue? This thing is getting fun to watch. Then again… there’s a whole lot of Democrat on Democrat action going around lately.

JARED ALLEN UPDATE – Because I know you care… Bob Gretz has some answers for the looming question, “Are we going to see Jared Allen in a Kansas City uniform this year?” Good news is… it’s looking promising. Bob has all of the answers to the real issues of the day (that truly matter) right here. Dude... looks like we may have to find a new perfect Veep choice for Johnny Mac. But it was fun while it lasted.

ROYALS UNDEFEATED – Woot! I know… it’s the first game of the season (the Royals Magic Number is 162, anyone know the formula?). Anyways… nice work by Tony Pena Jr. for his 11th inning heroics. I predict the Royals stay undefeated again today! Let’s Go Roy-als! Duh, duh, duh duh, duh!

AND FINALLY – Because I know you have an urge to rock out right now… and in honor of Senator Jeff Angelo’s cell phone ring tone… enjoy this video. Crank this one up you kids at the Capitol!
