Doug Stanhope asks about Robert Milnes

May 24th, 2008 · 10 Comments

Doug Stanhope is in Denver for the LP convention.

“Where’s Robert Milnes?” he asked.

Apparently, Milnes had sent out a request for donations to help him get to Denver. Stanhope responded and asked Milnes what it would take to get him to Denver. He asked Milnes to send the reply to an alternate e-mail address, but Milnes never responded. Stanhope theorizes that Milnes sent a message to the wrong address.

When told that Milnes still hoped to win the nomination in absentia, Stanhope laughed.

    LOL. Stanhope is the greatest.

    Clearly, the CIA intercepted Robert Milnes’ reply as part of their wider plot to suppress the burgeoning progressive alliance.

    Stanhope wanted to be the Pat Paulson candidate until he found out the FEC wouldn’t let him make any money from it. He also hosted a Girls Gone Wild video.

    I’d like to see Kane standing between him and the TV cameras whenever the red light goes on.

    Milnes is probably kicking himself now.

    Milnes did send out an email earlier this week asking that Mary Ruwart run for the Vice Presidential slot and back him for the presidential nomination.

    Poor Milnes… he really needs prefessional help. He is really messed up.

    [...] for money to get to Denver; Milnes was here in spirit. Plenty of people, including the comic Doug Stanhope, received his appeals for travel money. It’s for the best that Milnes didn’t show up [...]
