No more dessert for Pedro

So what, Harper’s Conservatives squeaked out a Tory minority. Who really cares? Most Americans who visit this site probably were unaware we had an election last night let alone one where we changed Prime Ministers.

The real tragedy of this whole debacle is not Party platforms or a change in power. The real tragedy is Independent Pedro Gonsalves who lost to incumbent Liberal Dan McTeague in Pickering Scarborough East.

Not only does Pedro have to deal with defeat, he has to contend with the rampant theft of all his "Vote for Pedro" signs. A heinous criminal act he is at a loss to explain.

Undaunted in the fact everyone he ran against receive more votes, Pedro is now setting his sites on running for Mayor of Mitchieville. However, unless his campaige involves cheep hookers and booze, I'd say his chances of success are slim and none.
