I grew up reading comic books wanting to be a superhero. Comics taught me that those who speak the truth are heroes, all the rest are liars.

An Army of Jims

Wait, I'm so confused, which Jim should I be supporting? What office are they running for? Oh yeah, gone are the days of actually running on your record or the issues. In their place voters now get to decide on which Ad guys they want to believe and support...

The fake Hollywood Jim aka "Jim the election guy," who promises to"sort things out for this upcoming political campaign."  or, the 'real Jims', which started with three, now five, soon to be an army of Jims actually from the sixth district of Minnesota ...

The Fake Jim
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN-06) hired a fake Jim, actor Beau Peregino who studied theater at Towson University in Maryland and lives now in California, for her commercials.

The Real Jims
MN State Senator Tarryl Clark (D) uses real Jims who live right in the sixth district. These Jims aren't as slickly polished as Mr. fake Jim but better represent our State because..gasp, they are from our State! They even give their correct first names...Jim.

Rep. Michele Bachmann's hired California actor Beau (aka Jim) holding actual Minnesota Sixth District voters named Jim supporting Tarryl Clark for Congress
The Decision
So what's it to be...a fake Jim (heck his name isn't Jim, it's Beau!) or an Army of Real Jims that live in the sixth district of Minnesota...seems straight forward enough choice. Even when doing commercials, Bachmann outsourced to a fake Hollywood actor named Beau, Tarryl Clark has the real deals...

"May I have your attention please?

May I have your attention please?
Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
I repeat, will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
We're gonna have a problem here..
Ha ha

Guess there's a Slim Shady in all of us
Fuck it, let's all stand up "
