Norris Is In

After an astonishing roller coaster ride of a campaign that saw him first bow out and then bow to pressure to return, David Norris will be on the Presidential ballot paper. And what a paper. Nominations are not yet closed, but the line-up is looking to be:

• The Gay Rights Activist

• The Reformed Terrorist

• The Christian-Right Pop Star

• The Socialist Intellectual

• The Reality TV Star

• The Government’s Guy

• The Inevitable Mary

Now that is a Presidential race. Suck it, USA.
