Dent and Bennett to Debate.....With Light Sabers!!

Congressman Charles Dent confirmed today that he has accepted an offer from his Democratic Party Challenger, Siobhan (Sam) Bennett, to a duel to the death with light sabers on Hamilton Mall on the PP&L Plaza, in front of the soon to be shuttered Johnny, "They'll be gone" Mananas.

Congressman Dent is training for the duel under the tutelage of the legendary Dark Lord Himself, Lord Vader. Meanwhile Sam Bennett is reportedly driving her trainer, Master Yoda, out of his mind with her lack of focus on her training. "Ready, she not be." he was quoted as saying. "On golden garden rakes, her mind is," he explained further.

No word yet on whether Mayor Ed Pawlowski will accept a similar challenge from recent convert to the Dark side, Tony Phillips, but word is that Phillips is training in a remote location under the direct supervision of the headless ghost of Count Dookoo. More on these stories as they develop!

Maybe you could walk between them as they duel and get your head chopped off, that would be a public service.

The idea of a light saber is pretty funny to us Star Wars nerds, but I don't know if I'd liken Bennett to Skywalker. I don't think she can pull of Jedi mind tricks.
