"DC" equals Dudes and Cock

The supposedly stellar College Republican hangout Hawk and Dove may as well be known as Cock and Balls. Thursday evening's edition of DC Fest was full of College Republicans glad-handing and feebly attempting to work a room full of their peers, making sure to give each a freshly-printed, but equally ridiculous business card. Not only were all bars inside the joint locked down tighter than Fort Knox during a security drill, but at least half of the attendees appeared to be well beyond the College part of College Republican. In another key shortcoming, random observation revealed the male to female ratio to be at least 6:1, although this figure has been disputed as being quite generous. These things happen, though, when you are trying to challenge the likes of Mainefest and other more established parties. My Sam Adams bobblehead is shaking his head in disgust.
