The Caninedate

The Globe reports that Christy Mihos has appointed his dog "Reagan' (You just knew he had a dog named Reagan) "canine outreach director" for his nascent independent bid for Governor.
Normally this is the sort of piffle that eases us through yet another dismal gubernatorial campaign, but in Crazy Christy's Case it is yet another signifier that something ain't right upstairs.
The man hasn't proposal one to deal with the Commonwealth's deindustrialization, depopulation and isolation in the Federal Union, but his DOG seems to have latched onto a good sinecure hasn't he?
Hell, why not solicit the endorsement of "Krypto the Superdog" off the Cartoon Network or for that fact Mihos could whistle stop the state using a rocketship!
He needs a Lieutenant Governor candidate?
Reagan is right there!
Loyal, friendly, telegenic.
The only other sensible candidate for the second spot might be his wife's garden gnome...but rumor is, he is a Chinese import.
Otherwise, the campaign is off to a demented start.
