The Hopester is on the ropester. He'd better learn to do the rope-a-dope because The Hillster has already claimed that she is the distaff Rocky (Rockette?) and she's in the fight as long as she can stand upright. There is a slight glimmer in the Hoosier state, though. The Hopester is also a hoopster. He's got game and The Hillster might be able to throw back shots of Crown Royal but she doesn't have the kind of shots Hoosiers appreciate. Instead of debate, let The Hillster and The Hopester play a game of H-O-R-S-E with the loser leaving town (and the campaign). If this is a (fair & balanced) double-team, so be it.
