Time To Ask the Dirty Question

 

Yeah, I know this is Tina Fey, but I couldn't resist! Obviously, this is a biased blog*, but feel free to vote for whomever you like here.

I could even say I will vote whichever the poll goes since North Carolina does not figure to be a swing state, but that's probably not likely to happen. If I am very depressed or a woman has not returned one of my phone calls, then I may very well vote for Ralph Nader........or Cynthia McKinney...or Bob Barr....or that guy named Chuck.**

Apologies to my Republican friends, like Gary Frink and Les Atkins, but with Church Lady as the choice for veep there is no way in h-e-doublel that I can vote for John McCain.

My neighbor here in Mount Airy, NC (not where I actually reside) happens to have a McCain yard sign which reminds me that I need to get an Obama sign for my mom. Someone stole her sign for John Kerry four years ago.

Interestingly enough, I did vote for McCain in the 2000 Virginia Republican Primary (even though I am not a Republican) because I did NOT want George W. Bush to become president. Oh well.......!

*- But, we are speaking the Gospel Truth when we say Sarah Palin isn't ready for prime time.

**- These are actual candidates for president. Bob Barr is running with the Libertarian Party. Cynthia McKinney is running with the Green Party. Surprisingly, both were members of Congress from Georgia! Barr was a Republican, and McKinney was a Democrat. They were both known for being very outspoken and controversial.

Ralph Nader is running for an independent. To my knowledge, even actor Bill Murray, who supported him in 2000, has jumped off his bandwagon. The Constitution Party has some guy named Chuck who is a preacher in Orlando, Fla. Interestingly enough, four of the five candidates running for office think the Iraq War was a mistake. John McCain is the exception.
