Award Season

With the Oscars around the corner, I've been thinking.

How come politics doesn't have an awards show? Think about it... the Oscars, Obies, Tonys, Grammys, Emmys, Annies, Cable Ace, Kids' Choice, Peoples' Choice, SAG, etc. Yet nothing for best campaign commercial, nothing for best slogan, best stump speech, best GOTV effort, best bill, best filibuster, best budget amendment...

I think politicians need to get together and put together an awards ceremony. They could nominate themselves for the awards and then everyone would get a ballot with the "candidates" and "vote" on who wins. Then everyone could go home and wait for CNN to predict the results.

Just an idea.

What would you call them the Pollies? Polies? The Peoples' Last Choice Awards?

On second thought, no political award show's name should end with "lies."
