If Dumbya managed to fall off of a damn Segway, who the hell thought he'd be safe on a mountain bike?

I hope you're not an issue voter where staying-on-the-bike is concerned-- Kerry fell off his bike 3 weeks ago (http://www.usatoday.com/news/politicselections/nation/president/2004-05-02-kerry-bike_x.htm).

I think there's some kind of competition going on between the two of them: Bush kicked things off with the Segway fall, then once Kerry felt he had the nomination locked up, he upped the ante falling down on a snowboard (and slipping on a floor) (http://entertainment.myway.com/celebgossip/pgsix/id/03_21_2004_1.html) then doing the bicycle spill within the space of a few weeks. So Bush had to try to catch back up by performing his own bicycle fall. I think this is part of some election-year thing to show what down-to-earth common men they are.

Maybe they can get somebody to put together a stage with a flimsy railing like the one that proved Bob Dole's undoing back in 1996.

I gotta say that the pretzel thing is pretty hard to beat.

I knew Dole was doomed as soon as the stage collapsed.

Maybe Nader can make a sequel to "Unsafe At Any Speed" about bikes. Speaking of which, has he fallen off a bike lately?
