Red State Fever…Catch It!

I was at physical therapist’s office last night waiting for my pilates class to start, and when I was in the waiting room, two 70-ish men sat down on the couch across from me.

The first man said, “So, which do you think is the lesser of three evils in the Presidential race?” The second replied with, “I dunno. I guess I’ll vote for McCain. What about you?” The first followed up with, “McCain, too. I guess. Although I don’t really want to.”

Can’t you just feel the energy? The excitement? The unbridled emotion?

I think that speaks for the vast majority of Republicans around here, based on what my ears have absorbed over the past few months. It’s even worse for moderates like me. Personally, I’m not a fan of either side this election. Although, I did like John McCain’s choice of Dwight Schrute as his running mate. The beet could become the national vegetable.

    I will hold my nose and vote for McCain, because the other 2 are worse than people ever thought he could be. Did you hear about the Huffington Post article up that claims John McCain wasn’t tortured in captivity and its all a lie for sympathy? Oh lord help us of the people those nut cases support get in office.

    with any luck McCain will succumb to age in the middle of his first term, then it’ll be Shrute’s show. That’ll be progress!

    Technically, I suppose Dwight wouldn’t be the VP…he’d be Assistant to the President.
