REUTERS – The race for Minnesota’s open Senate seat got yet murkier when an additional 23 ballots were found in the garage of local trombonist Paul Westerberg, where they had been stuffed behind his ten-speed. Confusing matters more, they were all cast for the write-in candidate ‘Seymore Butz’.
Reached for comment, Westerberg’s spokesman advised us to go and sit in a field sometime.

Westerberg’s spokesman declined to comment.

Just two weeks after dropping out of the race for the democratic presidential nomination, Paul Westerberg has, as suspected, lauched a third-party campaign for the presidency. Reached for comment, Westerberg’s campaign spokesman Kenny Rogers said, ‘Paul knows when to walk away, and he knows when to run.”

ASSOCIATED PRESS – In an unexpected move, Paul Westerberg has announced that he is dropping out of the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination. At least one newspaper will have to issue a retraction after printing that Westerberg had the nomination in hand. The candidate will encourage his delegates to support Tom Zarek. Reached for comment, Westerberg’s spokesman Kenny Rogers said, “You gotta know when to fold ‘em.”

There once was a man from Uranus
Whose dream was to not quite be famous
He called himself Paul
He’d rise but to fall
His lack of Gold records should shame us
T‘was born in the fifties like Stingle
To howl and to mumble and single
He’d scream with a shriek
Then warble quite bleak
And once he even dared to jingle
Opportunity knocked a few times
Offered riches for some simple rhymes
He said yes and no
Seen that video
He passed up crisp fifties for dimes
Over the years he paid his dues
This songwriter without a clue
But radio shrugged
The basement, it tugged
And off he went into the blue
So music poured out through the years
Songs filled with fake drums and real fears
He keeps us bemused,
Transfixed and transfused
Cause if not, then why is he here…
Got yer books? Go read ‘em.

The publishing industry is positively awash in Paul-Westerberg-influenced projects, much as I predicted would happen in my blog on this very site three years ago. A few examples:
And next month’s Oprah Bookclub Pick is riding the bandwagon too.
Go figure.
