So confident that she recruited enough votes to win the election, Bea opted to display only one sign, in one Canadian neighborhood. Sadly, once the polls opened, Bea's master plan failed miserably.
All but one of Bea's recruited voters came through at the polls. Cousin Clifford tried to vote for Bea, but because he couldn't see the names on the ballot, he accidentially voted for the Communist candidate. Wanting to put a positive spin on his error, Clifford reminded Bea that Communists are sometimes called pinkos. Cousin Franklin was too busy chasing birds, so he forgot to vote. Cousin Louise intentionally against Bea, just for fun. Bea's brother Benny couldn't bring himself to enter the election station, fearing there may be a floor mat behind the voting booth. Brothers Oliver and Charlie were expelled from the polling station for poor behavior. They did not have a chance to vote. That left Cousin Ralphie, the only one that voted for Bea. Ralphie will use any excuse to wear his fluffy pink boa.
A devastated Bea remained composed and dignified, advising the Press that her future plans include staring in a daytime soap opera, The Bold and the Beaver. Was there ever a doubt that this superstar would quickly recover from her failed political career?

You did your best Miss Bea. Who could ask for anything more! Good luck in your new career.
ReplyDeleteBea is taking some quiet time away from all the media attention to reflect upon a tremendously hard fought campaign and to determine her next steps. While it is true, that she is now contemplating a career in television...Bold and The Beaver or So You Think You Can Dance Better Than Bea?.....she wishes to acknowledge the strategic move Prime Minister Harper made in the campaign that ultimately led to his victory.....the blue sweater. If only Bea had worn a pink angora sweater, she would be Primeministress! The pearls were not enough to sway the citizens of Canada. But not to worry, she woke with the sun this morning, ate a bowl of tender vittles, had mommy comb her hair with her pink comb, and brother Bennie licked her face until she looked groomed and pretty.....as a princess!
