Who can resist these eyes?

The only white stuff you'll ever find on my nose is snow.

Some days I do so much, I wish I could fly.

If you don't vote for me. You don't have a heart!

Please, please, please vote for me!

Some days you just gotta shake it off.

Humpf. Well, if your not going to vote for me..
Im Just going to have to pout.

Hey, even a hard working basset hound needs
some rest after a tough day of vote getting.
Meet My Running Mates

Fluffer D. Cat
Although some days I think he might hit the nip a little too much. Fluffer D. Cat is one standup kinda feline. And it takes a lot for me to say that, being a basset hound and all! This cat will make a great VP and you won't see him shooting anyone in the face, considering he can't hold a gun. But, if your not careful, and stick your nose in his butt one too many times. He might just bite you.


Sir Mooches A Lot
While Moocher as we like to call him, still doesn't like me all that much. He can be all soft and cudly when he needs to be. But watch out, this feline has a mean and vicious side. What better qualities could a basset ask for in his choice for Secretary of State.
