Gravel: "I'm Not A Potted Plant"
Shades of Perot's first running mate, Admiral Stockdale

Give 'em Hell, Mike!

1. He was colorful, wasn't he?
To be honest, I'd never heard of him.

2. Yep, this guy was a one man riot. He's mad and he isn't going to take anymore.
And hot damn, I love him.

You know, he's so honest, he might actually have a chance at winning. People would be surprised to see the weird shit that can happen in elections. Think about Perot. He could have been the first indie Prez since GW if he hadn't been dealing in the backroom with the Republicans and stopped his campaign.

No nonsense is popular in this country.

3. Actually that line was coined by Brendan Sullivan, Ollie North's lawyer,
when he was testifying with immunity before a congressional committee. Sullivan uttered the line in protest to some congress members objecting to his coaching of North on his answers.
