Mofo's Blind Gelect

I wish the Governor's debate was a reality TV show and that we'd get to see a new episode every Friday from now until the election. This was WAY, way, way more entertaining than the goofy reality TV shows the networks cook up.
Some of my favorite moments:
Rick Perry (mofo) sternly telling us (mofo) that it is always wrong (mofo) to make inappropriate comments (mofo) when running for governor (mofo) of our great state. You know, like Kinky. And there was the moment when he said "blind gelect" instead of "blind neglect." I was at a watch party and everyone stopped throwing nerf balls at Governor Blow Dry's hairdo long enough to ask, "what in the hell is gelect?"
Granny Carole not knowing a damn thing. That about sums up her performance. "In a Strayhorn administration we will ignore the President of Mexico (whoever he is) and we'll provide 14 zillion years of unemployment compensation." She should have just started breaking out in song, "the answer my friend is blowing in the wind" when it was clear she didn't know the answer to those two questions.
Kinky. What to say. At one point we all asked, "is he at the same debate as everyone else?" This is when he made the comment about everyone picking on him when absolutely no one was doing that. And, am I the only one, or did anyone else notice he kept making Chris Bell's case for him? At the end of the debate, several of us wondered out loud whose vote is he trying to get exactly? Not anyone who uses the internet, that's for sure. I'll give him this, he is the only one who recognized that one hour as a reality TV show. He kept trying to convince us he was based in reality. Really?
Chris Bell. My hero! 1836!!! He so rocks. My God, he was so smart, so polished, so funny, so friendly. He wiped the floor with those three Republicans.

Here it is muse, how I wanted to answer Chris Bell's question as 1826. Memory is a funny thing - as we discussed.
1836, which was Chris' correct answer, to my mind was 1826. But in actuality, the date that my mind was tracking was a combination of 1824, the date on the Alamo flag, and 1836, the year of the battle of the Alamo. Hence. 1826. (No I am not a born in the state Texan).
I feel humbled in Chris Bell's total recall.
