SDP: Epp = Swearengen, Blanchard = Wu, Schuldt = Calamity Jane?

Jonny S at South Dakota Politics makes a "Deadwood-esque" analogy of some of us in SoDakBlogOLand: Prof. Schaff's take:

. . . How Schaff Sees Schuldt

Many months ago I suggested that if I were casting Deadwood with South Dakota blogosphere characters, I'd cast Todd Epp as Al Swearengen and Ken Blanchard as Mr. Wu.  After reading the post by Chad at CCK referred to by Ken Blanchard, I nominate Chad for Calamity Jane.  Not because I see him playing a woman, but because that guy can curse like an old prospector.  Whew!  For a while there I thought my hard drive might melt.101944-192479-thumbnail.jpg

I'll take the Swearengen comparison as a compliment (as a former denizen of newsrooms, I can drop F-bombs with the best of them, but my effing skills in using the F-word are strictly bush league compared to Al's).  I think I look more like Seth Bullock than Al.  I nominate PP from S.D. War College as our blogoshphere's A.W. Merrick.101944-192487-thumbnail.jpg

I'll take the Calamity Jane part. I look great in a dress, but I hate to wear them because I have to shave my legs.

heh.

You said "how Epp sees PP."

heh.

What about non-political Corey Vilhauer? Am I just that guy headed to Minnesota who's ripped apart by "natives" in the first show?

Corey:

Better than that. You get to be one of my, er Al's, right hand men.

I should have expected that. At least I could have been the one who actually gets to kill people.
