Caffeination Domination (or Least Scientific Poll Ever)

I noticed my local 7-11 today had a strange banner outside about the election. It turns out that you can vote for you favorite candidate by choosing a red or blue coffee cup.

And if you click the link above, you can come to the conclusion that McCain better hope most people don't drink coffee at 7-11! I mean, Obama is winning Texas for crying out loud! There are a lot of states that don't have results...I wonder what is up with that.

I was honestly surprised...I thought all them elite liberals would be drinking elitist coffee and the "real Americans" would go to 7-11.

Where do you go if you can't afford gasoline or coffee?

And if red = Republican, then why does pinko = commie?

I saw on the news last night they were recommending that people vote early. They said the lines will be horrific with at least 90 minute waits. The news story stated that more people will vote absentee ballot this time than ever before in history.

I'll wait in the line. Good time to people watch and mentally question just how democracy works. You know, you look at someone and go...geech, they will let ANYONE vote! :)

These colored cups are just a way for them to sell more coffee. Are people really that stupid that all the encouragement they need to stop for a cup of coffee they wouldn't already buy is a suggestion of an endorsement? I retract that question.....your honor.

I am not sure, Huck. There used to be one up on 3 mile, but I think they dropped the franchise.

There is an early voting booth at the U of A. I think I will do that next week when I get back from vacation.
