Obama or McCain?

To be honest, I think it is a foregone conclusion the US electorate will put Obama in the White House. I just can't see any scenario where McCain is elected regardless of who his opponent is and in this case I think the groundswell of support for Obama would defeat far better candidates than McCain. But I still need to determine who I am going to vote for...I don't vote based on who I think is going to win, I vote based on who actually represents me. On the rare occasions that person is a major party candidate...okay, so the next time that is true will be the first time...I vote for them, otherwise I find someone who does and vote for them even if their victory is hopeless. I refuse to vote for the lesser of two evils and that is what I would be doing to vote for either McCain or Obama.

Fortunately, I have found my candidate. George is a great man. He has honesty, integrity, and humility. He led our country in a desperate war against overwhelming odds and kept us together. He refused a third term because he wanted to limit the power of any one man. He even has his picture on quarters and dollar bills. I am speaking of course of George Washington.

Now, you might be saying, "Weasel, Washington died. Like...200 years ago. Dead people can't be elected to public office."

They can if they are the best candidate. Don't believe me? Ask Romania.

I think I'll do a "write in" vote for Abe Lincoln. He would kick George's ass.
