Campaigns are often well-oiled machines that have the ability to change on a dime.  Success dictates taking advantage of circumstances or capitalizing on your opponent's mistake.

That takes us to Monday night.  I won't say who the local candidate was -- but I couldn't help shake my head about one of the get-out-the-vote appearances.

The candidate was scheduled to stand outside The Orpheum Theater, say 'Hello' and shake hands with those were were attending Monday nights show of the popular musical Wicked.  I thought it was a good idea considering you'd have the captive audience of a couple thousand people in a short time.

The only problem: Wicked doesn't have shows on Monday night!  Now you see the humor.

By the way, the candidate caught wind of this before arriving to the empty sidewalk.
