Fingers Malloy Made CQ Politics LOL

Posted on August 6th, 2010 by Fingers Malloy

Well kids, Pamela Gorman Day was a huge success. Yesterday her campaign coffers swelled to over 1 biiilllliooon dollars. Much of that credit goes to everyone that listened to FTR Radio’s wall to wall coverage of PamelaPalooza. Thank you!

The lead up to yesterday was fun. I thought it would be funny to make up a bunch of ridiculous statements about Pamela Gorman and tweet them with the hashtag #pamelagormanfunfacts. I heart Twitter.

Well it didn’t take long for me to gravitate to some old Chuck Norris fun facts. I repackaged some of them as Pamela Gorman fun facts and included a new car smell. Others joined in on the fun. It was pretty successful.

Later I found out that CQ Politics noticed our shenanigans-and wrote about them on CQPolitics.com. Fingers Malloy on CQ Politics? All I can say is- it’s about time.

From CQ Politics:

Random can be funny. Just ask “Fingers Malloy.”

Malloy came up with a clever way to invite listeners to tune into “Pamela Gorman Day” on his online radio show, “The Snark Factor.”

He tweeted fictional and clearly silly “fun facts” about Gorman, a Republican running for the House in Arizona’s 3rd district.

Then others joined in.

Here are the contributions to #pamelagormanfunfacts that made us LOL, groan, or both:

  • “Crop circles are @PamelaGorman’s way of telling the world that sometimes corn needs to lie down.”
  • “@PamelaGorman can win a game of Connect Four in only three moves.”
  • “@PamelaGorman knows where Carmen Sandiego is.”

My thanks go out to Katherine Rizzo and CQ Politics. To read the entire post, click here.
