Hidey Ho, Primates! Welcome to the one and only Real Banana, your source for the real poop on politics.
Let's do it and get to it..
This week I got a real treat for you, an exclusive interview with (drumroll) Alvin Greene, Senatorial Candidate for the great state of South Carolina!
WM: Hey Alvin, nice to see you.
AG: You too, Monkey.
WM: So how's the campaign going?
AG: I just keep gettin' my message out, about how Jim DeMint caused the recession. The momen-momo, uh, movement is goin' my way.
WM: So what made you decide to run for Senate?
AG: Well, that Jim DeMint, you know he caused the recession, and I'm here as an outsider candidate to fix that. So I ran.
WM: A lot of people, Democrats like Jim Clyburn, the House majority Whip said that they thought the Republicans gave you the ten thousand dollars to file and run.
AG: He lies, Monkey. I mean, if somebody would have gave me money to run, I would have taken it, but for some reason nobody did, so I had to put up the money - me, myself. I'm a independent, like one of those tea partyers, except I'm Democrat. You think the tea partyers would endorse me and give me some money?
WM: Well, I wouldn't know,I'm not really...maybe if Sarah Palin endorsed you?
AG: Now that's a fine lookin' woman. I could see us taking over politics, Greene and Palin. You got her phone number?
WM: Umm, no...plus, she's married, you know and I hear -
AG: What's that got to do with me?
WM: Well, aside from being married she's also a Republican so I don't think..
AG: Well they say politics is strange bedrooms, or something like that. But if's she's Republican it probably wouldn't work out anyhow.
WM: Right. Why do you think you were able to upset Vic Rawl in the primary? It shocked everybody.
AG: Well,I understand political science. I even have a degree in it from the University of South Carolina. So I ran me a sleeper campaign, took him by surprise.
WM: You sure did - no signs, no ads, hardly any rallies or speeches..
AG: That was my strategy. A surprise attack, like an ambush in the jungle..just like I'm gonna do to that Jim DeMint, for causing the recession .
WM: I was watching CNN and they interviewed one guy who said he voted for you because he'd always liked your music...he confused you with Al Green, the singer.
AG: Confusion, yeah, that was my strategy.
WM: It worked pretty well. Let's get to the issues . You said once that one of your plans to create jobs was to have people build action figures of you in military uniform. What gave you that idea?
AG: Well, makin' action figures is work, is jobs and I figure if they're gonna make action figures, they could make one of me in my Army uniform, Air force uniform...I even have a drawing here, of one of me in a ninja outfit. And this one, as a cowboy...
WM: These are really cute! And you could have accessories, you know, like enemy figures, maybe a horse, all sold separately, of course.
AG: Yeah, just like on TV. You see, Jim DeMint, who caused the recession would never have an idea like that. And I have other idea too. Like a fashion line, the Alvin Greene Collection. Maybe a cologne.
WM: You could call it Alvin Greene's 'Confusion'. The smell of politics...
AG: Ye-eah! I like that!
WM: I figured you would. Speaking of confusion, what's the real deal behind you getting indicted for a felony a couple of months ago? What's up with that?
AG: Just misunderstood intentions, Monkey. See I was in a residence hall over at the University Campus where I used to go -
WM: I thought you graduated..
AG: Well, yeah, but I still had my old ID card to get in, and it's still a fun place to hang out, meet people, you know? So any way, I was in this residence hall and I got to talking to this little freshman chick in a computer lab they got there, just havin' a little fun, and she got weird and reported me to the security.
WM: You were indicted for showing her porn on your computer screen and then telling her "let's go to your room."
AG: Just tryin' to break the ice. Hey, she said no way, I was cool with it, no harm done.
WM: What exactly did you show her? Never mind, skip that question.
AG: I was, you know, just using my confusion strategy on her. I figure it was like something Clinton might have done.
WM: Or Teddy Kennedy?
AG: Yeah.
WM: So this was all just you being part of a proud Democratic Party tradition?
AG: Uh-huh.
WM: Well, maybe. I hope it all ends up working out for you. I'd hate to see you get convicted on a rap like that.
AG: Thanks.
WM: You also are for free healthcare and free college tuition.
AG: Yeah...I feel my constituency is the sick and kids in college.
WM: You know, free tuition was one of my campaign planks when I ran. I got a lot of support that way.
AG: Ummm!
WM: OK, Alvin. The polls show you way behind Jim DeMint. Do you think you can win?
AG: It'll be just like the primary. I'm gonna come from behind to win because I got confusion on my side.
WM: Best of luck Alvin. Thanks for dropping by.
Smell yah later, Primates!
