Clint Eastwood comes loaded with quips.Per se, North Korea pushes. Eastwood's "Make my Day," will put the little nation quivering in its boots. This is very well written.

Cute. A little cynical, but cute. And I suppose we've all become a little cynical at this point. Dirty Harry would sure clean up the mess! Good luck on the contest.

Funny, funny! Very good tone, kept throughout. The first sentence was terrific, made me want to read until the end.

The only thing I would say is missing is that the article doesn't actually address what the title states, that the campaign slogan will be "Never Say Never." I think there could be a whole other humorous interlude with that. That or change the title. :)

Nice work!

    I may rework that. "Never Say Never" is the famous song by Justin Bieber. I was hoping it would stand out for itself. Thanks for the suggestion and for a great review. :)

    No problem! You might want to position the new "slogan" (hilarious, btw) against Obama's last slogan, which was praised so highly. I think that's a funny juxtaposition. :) Good luck in the contest!

Your short story is very interesting. In my opinion only, I didn't feel any laughs in my funny bone. I thought your writing skills were worth 5 stars. Carole

    Never say Never, thank you for the reply. I try to be honest about my reviews with the idea that the author could improve. I'm no expert and I value any remarks that others give me. I try to do the same. Thanks again, Carole
