Just to Expand on Crusader's Post Below
...I'll share a little 'happening' from the campaign office yesterday. First, let me remind you what our facade looks like:
Got that? Well, I guess the three well dressed, middle-aged ladies who came in mid-afternoon didn't. They asked in ~ ALL SINCERITY
~ if "this was the place for early Democratic voting?"
And were really embarrassed when we pointed out two things...two GLARING, SHOULDABEENOBVIOUS things:
1) The larger than life McCain photos they had to pass to get in the door, not to mention the John and Sarah cut outs that greet everyone.
2) The unfortunate fact that, by law, Republicans and Democrats ALL vote in the same place, at the same time and THAT building is two blocks down on the right.
We're doomed.

I believe I would have said, "Absolutely," and handed each of them a blank piece of paper and a pencil.

Maybe to qualify to vote native born citizens should have to take and pass the citizenship test.
Never mind that in Maryland no campaign workers or signs can be within 300 feet of the poling place. I imagine most states have similar restrictions.

Fortunately, I know where to drop off my ballot, and I did so yesterday. After voting for McCain, of course.

That's hilarious. There's no end to how stupid people can be, I guess.

Crusader just sent me this. Don't think for two smirky seconds we didn't give the "Wednesday" answer some wishful thought...
