Georgy's Slashdot Interview
She’s the California gubernatorial candidate who’s working the geek appeal. Georgy Russell was recently asked a few questions by the visitors to Slashdot, a website who’s motto is “News for Nerds. Stuff that Matters”. The questions range from policy specifics, to musing the favorite interview question: “Vi or Emacs?” (both are Linux text editors). Georgy shows that she’s a crowd pleaser by responding “both”, though more specific ruminations on her campaign could be gleaned from her campaign site. Georgy is running as a Democrat and lives in Mountain View, CA.

Posted by: Pete at August 20, 2003 05:59 PMI’m not promoting, I’m stifling laughter.
Posted by: Stephen VanDyke at August 20, 2003 06:04 PMOh,I get it now. Maybe she could run for “best looking” candidate though. She is kind of cute, certainly better looking than Bustamonte (sp?)
Posted by: Pete at August 20, 2003 06:18 PMHey, I liked the Slashdot interview. That interview put my blog over 1,000 visits today. I even blogged about it.

Still not to impressed by Ms. Russell, though.

Change your politics. Uptight GOP gals aren’t the thong crowd.
Do Democratic, it’s sexier! ;-)
Posted by: Robbie D at August 21, 2003 11:28 AMRobbie D, the Democrat crowd is a “venereal-able” hotbed of thong-wearing hussies then?
Posted by: Stephen VanDyke at August 21, 2003 12:28 PMI’d rather be with thing wearing hussies than uptight old rich white guys. ;-)
Posted by: Robbie D at August 21, 2003 12:45 PMLiberal women: Hillary Clintons. Conservative women: Laura Ingrahams. Take your pick.
Posted by: Richard Bennett at August 21, 2003 02:39 PMIt’s nice to see this hasn’t devolved into objectifying women at all or assuming that just because she uses lame gimmicks to raise cash that she shouldn’t be taken seriously.
