Well OK
Tired of Republicans? The Democrats not doing it for you either? Well have no fear...How about a Satanist?
My name is Jonathon “The Impaler” Sharkey, Ph.D., L.D.D.D. I am a Satanic Dark Priest, Sanguinarian Vampyre and a Hecate Witch. My Magikal Path name is: Lord Ares.
I'm not kidding...this guy is running for governor of Minnesota!
MINNEAPOLIS (Jan. 13)Minnesota voters, who eight years ago elected a former professional wrestler as their governor, may find a self-proclaimed vampire on the ballot for the office this year.
"Politics is a cut-throat business," said Jonathon "The Impaler" Sharkey, who said he plans to announce his bid for governor Friday on the ticket of the Vampyres, Witches and Pagans Party.
And in case you wondered...yes he's a practicing vampire. In other words, yes he DOES drink blood.
Sharkey told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that he's a vampire "just like you see in the movies and TV.""I sink my fangs into the neck of my donor ... and drink their blood," he said, adding that his donor is his wife, Julie.
But his stance on capital punishment is what stands out most.
Sharkey also pledged to execute convicted murders and child molesters personally by impaling them on a wooden pole outside the state capitol.
On his personal website he also says he'll deal with any terrorists found in Minnesota the exact same way. At least he's got a plan I guess, which is better than we can say for Bush who is off chasing invisible enemies.
Sad you don't live in Minnesota? Not to fear...he's running for president in 2008. I must say I think I've seen it all now! You just can't make this stuff up.
Note: I should point out I have nothing against pagans or witches. What you do on your own time is your concern not mine. I've actually been reading a lot of Wicca books as of late.

I can't believe she lets him feed from her neck. Most practicing Vampires in this day and age feed from the shoulder (where the blood supply is plentiful, but you can't drain your donor totally)! Don't ask how I know....I've been reading some weird stuff lately.
