Pitt v. Clooney

Here’s the short version of the results at the Prowers County Assembly. The original county totals from Caucus were 26 Romanoff, 13 Bennet and 3 undecided.

We had quite a few who had previous commitments and could not come, plus we lost one couple because the wife had a stroke and will be in a rehabilitation center for quite a while.

The votes did not change much by ratio. None of the Us came. Romanoff ended up with 16 votes, and Bennet had 7. Because our small county only had 4 delegates to choose, we had to ’round off’. So we will be sending 3 delegates for Romanoff and 1 for Bennet (me).

I mention the details because I think it shows how much ‘slip’ there is between original numbers and what the delegate count will be. Maybe I am getting the math processes wrong, but it does seem to me that the rounding-up means the gap between the two contenders is smaller than it appears in the mirror.

But now for the main event! Because I am The Lone Delegate, the guy from our local radio station who was covering our assembly asked me for some sound bites.  I expanded on what I’d said during the assembly, that we have two such good candidates that it is going to be hard to choose, like deciding whether to go on a date with Brad Pitt or George Clooney.

During the long ride home from Holly, I got to thinking. Since I am for Bennet, and since the actor match-up was my idea, do I get to say which actor represents Bennet? Because of the two, I prefer Clooney. But I have to admit that George would be a better match to play Andrew in his bio-pic.

So — should Clooney play the Romanoff role? Should Brad be Bennet? Or are there better matches I’m not thinking of?
