Is the media beating this whole Jersey Shore thing to death? Definitely. Are we here at Westword going to join in on beatin’ up the beat? Damn right.
Being the thoughtful and responsible journalists that we are, we decided to use the “Jersey Shore Nickname Generator” to create Guido and Guidette nicknames for the main 2010 political candidates (along with a few specially tailored suggestions).
We strongly suggest everybody refer to the candidates by the following names for the duration of the campaign season. We’re pretty sure it will improve proceedings immeasurably, bro.
Governor John Hickenlooper: J-Muscle Scott McInnis: The Prince of Paramus Bill Ritter: He’s like Angelina. Didn’t stick around long enough to earn a nickname.
