At the staging site for today’s parade in Belton, Missouri:

Uh, Dave, what’s your party affiliation? We couldn’t spot it on your campaign land yacht.

Think about driving a behemoth like this on a parade route which takes you through residential streets, with people in lawn chairs along the route and kids lining the streets waiting for the candy handed out by candidates or tossed out from floats. To be fair, we were at the front of the parade so we didn’t see if they managed to drive the campaign land yacht in the parade. Then again, we’re pretty sure they didn’t just show up at the staging site to demoralize the opposition (It had the opposite effect, they all laughed).

Yep, nothing exceeds like excess.
