[should-be-shameful admission but I don't really care]I expect I'm not going to vote, because there ain't no way in hell Texas is ever going to be a blue state, and I don't have the energy to drag a hyperactive toddler to a polling location for some paltry act of symbolism. [/shameful]

But if McCain wins... I'll be a little disappointed, but I'm not going to be too terribly worried about it in the long run.

I really can't get behind either one of these knuckleheads, so... barring any significant developments...

I am voting for Heads. But if Tails wins the election, I will remain open-minded, optimistic, and will wait patiently to see what comes of his leadership of the country. I will also continue to write to and email the scum sucking mother fucking whores who represent me in Washington, and keep them apprised of my lack of support for most if not all of the great ideas these jackasses constantly come up with.

I will not be voting for anyone because I'm not allowed. If McCain gets elected my opinion of all y'all will be put to the test and if he dies and we get president palin, I may well then take citizenship, take up my right to arms and start shooting. If Obama gets elected, I will be cautiously optimistic, but i will also add him to my 2009 celebrity death pool list

Based on the proposed Washington subsidy for stupidity, criminality, and incompetence, I'm no longer open-minded or optimistic. The GOP should be punished and if they are not, I'll be disappointed.

I'm thinking of selling my vote on ebay, starting bid: $.01.

ZenGum 09-26-2008 09:26 PM

I would prefer X. If Y gets in, I am moving to Z. Except that I am already in W, and Z is closer to V, so I'll stay here. Got that?

Griff 09-26-2008 09:30 PM

cool I could have two useless votes.

If Obama wins, I'm moving to England and rub noses with Sundae Girl. ;)

Yznhymr 09-26-2008 11:15 PM

I don't care who wins...rubbing noses is fun. And I betcha rubbing noses with Sundae Girl is much funner.

ZenGum 09-27-2008 07:19 AM

You reckon it would stop with noses though?

regular.joe 09-27-2008 02:48 PM

"Noses"....is that what they are calling those in England these days????

What she said.

I do, however support one over the other. I am aware of my candidates flaws, and accept the fact that no other human being will agree with me %100. Like most of the Cellar, I did not vote for the current occupant of the White House and have spent 8 years saying "Don't look at me, I didn't vote for that idiot". The prospect that my candidate might win and that I will finally take partial ownership of the resulting consequences is both exhilarating and frightening.

Both candidates appear to be more patriotic than the Bushites. In that way we'll get some improvement right out of the box. I don't think either has the stomach for what our economy needs, so we'll be rewarding malfeasance either way. At least, the reward will be better monitored than Bushes bail out the oligarchs plan. He really did recognize a brother in Putin, didn't he?

If Obama wins and he taxes everyone to pay for the bailout, meets with the Iranian President to nuke Israel,pulls out of Iraq too fast, or generally just does nothing except to be 'present' and is just another puppet leader I am moving to central Canada.

If McCain wins and allows China or the middle east emirates to subsidize the bailout,gets into a battle with Russia or lets the nuclear power plant run off into our water supply or dies of old age I am moving to North- North eastern Canada and live in an igloo.


I made up false fears for McCain. Just to be fair.;)

I'm voting for Obama, but if McCain wins the election, I will seek employment and housing in another country because it will be the downfall of America. I will patiently seek opportunities that will allow me to bring my family with me so I don't have to see America crumble into economic failure due to perpetual war, and increased terrorism around the world due to our actions, and attacks against American civil rights from a government that routinely violates our Constitution and borrows unlimited amounts of money in our name.

McCain will surely die of old age during his time in office and put nuclear weapons into the hands of a book banning religious nutjob who can't pronounce the word "nuclear" and who believes people and dinosaurs lived together.
