Was it the grandmother that said he was born in Kenya and she was there?

Its the one that if she was in front of you you wouldnt have the balls to spread total lies because you're a coward.

So I was watching the State of the Union last night.... - Flumper Barflusterbutt - 11-04-2008

I was driving my daughter to school today and we passed a hand painted sign with an arrow and the word "vote" showing people the route to the voting station we passed. Anyway it got her to talking about the election.

Daughter: Hey, a voting place. Did you vote?

Flumper: No. Not yet.

Daughter: You better go vote today.

Flumper: Yeah I'm going to try.

Daughter: I know who you are voting for. Obama.

Flumper: Ha. You know better than that.

Daughter: Okay, let's just say that on the slim chance that would never ever happen in a million years, but let's just say that somehow Obama won the election. You know what would happen?

Flumper: What?

Daughter: He would probably get shot and then Biden would be president. And that would be twice as bad as Obama which is the worst. Did you know that all Obama wants to do is raise taxes. And do you know why he wants to raise the taxes? All of those people that drop out of school, he wants to raise our taxes so that they can get an education. Like, if they wanted an education they wouldn't have dropped out of school. Why does he have to butt in all the time and raise our taxes?

Flumper: Well, I hate to break it to you but Obama is probably going to win.

Daughter: No. Do not say that. What's wrong with McCain. Who cares if he is old. So what. At least he's not a buttinski that is going to raise our taxes for a bunch of dropouts.

Flumper: Yeah, you're right.

I just thought it was funny how 8th graders boil things down. She has no idea. I did tell her that if Obama wins, that he will do a good job. She asked me when we would know who won. I told her that we should know tonight. She said, "really? what time". I said probably about the time you go to bed. She said, "well, if McCain doesn't win, don't tell me. I don't want any bad news before I go to bed"

I told her I would just wait and tell her in the morning about how it turns out.

Yeah, I'll bet. Just think, she could be living in Mexico and sleeping in a hammock with a complete dipshit for a dad.

Fascinating.Its odd she's so pro mccain when most kids seem to love Obama and see Mccain as the mean old man.I guess if you hear him called "one of those" enough it starts to sink in.

Well, I don't study the electoral vote like you do, so I have no idea on percentage. But I have a feeling that the term "landslide" will be used a lot tonight. It just depends on how much the networks try to drag it out and make it seem suspenseful. But I will bet that out of the "undecided" and "leaning" states, that Obama will have way more surprises than McCain will.

I've got to hand it to Obama. He's run an historic race, to be the first black guy to be president, and yet he has never made it about that at all. After all of the Jesse Jackson's that we have seen over the years, finally one guy emerges that never even brings that subject up.

I got an anonymous text message about an hour ago that said, "Due to long lines today, all Obama voters are asked to vote on Wednesday. Thank you! Please forward to everyone."
