The losing Virginia congressional candidate Krystal Ball suffered a campaign distraction when photos of her surfaced in which she had been wearing a santa costume while fellating Rudolph’s red nose.
That this youthful bit of fun would be turned against her during the campaign made her angry, and – I kid you not – she had this to say about it before the election:
“It is me in the pictures, and, you know, it was a gag party…” <youtube video>
And so Dr. Freud, you win again.
I am just thankful it was not 9 pictures of Barney Frank doing Rudolph’s nose instead of her. Sad thing is if it had been he still probably would have held his seat.
