SHOW ME YR VOTES: Here is my take away on the latest Candidates Gone Wild which took place last night at the Aladdin Theater: Bring back the talent show! Although there was plenty of the political high-jinks we've come to look forward to at this seasonal event produced by Willamette Week, The Bus Project and Livewire, it wasn't really the same without a few candidates making complete fools of themselves at the end of this usually highly unusual event. Emcee Storm Large (preparing backstage above) rocked the full house with more than a few off-topic comments and the films created by James Westby featuring "Hot Cross Buns" co-host Courtenay Hameister and the dudes running for Governor (minus "pussy" Chris Dudley) were priceless. I even loved the part where Metro Prez candidate Rex Burkholder bounced up and down on a ball as David Bragdon asked him questions. But "The Dancing With The Candidates" bit—although substantive—was about as fun to watch as Kate Gosselin on the real Dancing With the Stars. Although a nice twirl of the skirt goes out to Commish candidate Karol Collymore, her answers were as fleet as her dancing shoes.
