I tend to find it true what people say - people choose dogs that resemble themselves, in some ways - so seeing these two dogs together in the 2009 St. Patrick's Day parade made me think of two local political leaders who very likely would gravitate toward such best friends, and who love a good parade, and who in fact look shocking like these lovely creatures here (assuming they are boys)...

Any guesses who I'm thinking of?

Hint... I think they'd find this funny.

Any thoughts on who are holding their leashes?
