Hello and welcome to Car Talk from National Public Radio with us,

Click and Clack the Tappert Brothers, and we're broadcasting this week from the Political Consulting Division

here at Car Talk Plaza.

Now, we wanted to share with you the great reach, the great impact that Car Talk is

having on the political establishment in this country.

I can hardly wait.

Well, as you know, we never endorse candidates because we think they're all a bunch of what?

Jerks.

Gas bags.

However, we have had contact with a few so-called politicians, and the results have been very

enlightening.

Haven't they been?

I don't know.

Well, you may remember some weeks ago, we tipped our hats to the mayor of Brooklyn, Ohio, which was the first city in the country to ban talking on a cell phone while driving.

I do remember that we did that.

We thought that was pretty courageous stuff.

And we said, good for you, Mayor John Coyne.

That's the guy's name.

Yeah.

Well, we just got the word that Mayor Coyne, who has been mayor of Brooklyn for like 75 years, was recently voted out of office.

So we want to apologize to former Mayor Coyne for any role that we may have played in destroying his.

Oh, that's what you remember, the great impact that car talk has on the political establishment.
