Congratulations to Mr. Dilettante, from Mr. D’s Neighborhood, on winning the 2012 Minnesota Organization of Bloggers mayoral election.

…no, I can’t go on with it. The Mayor has no power. The MOB, being expressly apolitical, has no agenda, beyond two drinking parties a year. Bremer is a frothing looney…
…Where were we? Oh yeah. Dilettante will take office at his swearing-in ceremony at the MOB Party on February 25. Make sure you reserve your seat at this historic event.
Hope to see you there!
The Mayor has no power.

the line for patronage forms at the bar…
Ransom? Pfffft, y’d havta pay us to take ’em back.
And as for “swearing-in”, here goes:
OK Mr. D, you are now the %#&*#%!& MOB Mayor!
Consider yerself sworn in, ya Grumpy Old Man.
To quote Mo Udall, and the First Ringer, “the voters have spoken – the bastards!”

Carl: Nothing.
Homer: D’oh!
Carl: Unless you’re crooked.
Homer: Whoo-hoo!
