I saw that on CNN (!) a few days ago. Funny, really. And we're still months away from the election! I wonder what they'll manage to dig up for next month. "Our weekly Presidential candidate poll: Boxers or Briefs?"

But what gets me are some of McCain's choices. Usher? You get the feeling he threw that in just to look hip? And Dexter? The show about the guy who seems normal by day, but is actually a serial killer trying to turn his compulsion to kill into a force for good? Hmm...

But what I love is the fact that Jeff Bridges is an older white man and Dennis Haysburt is a younger black man. :D

If you click on the link, McCain kind of adds-on Usher because he appeared with him on SNL.

I thought the same thing about Dexter!

HAHA, GOOD POINT!

Candidates Preferences

This is what their publicists want us to think of them, you mean?

I am inclined to think these are their real favorites... since I doubt McCain's publicist would suggest "Dexter" (a show about a serial killer) as his favorite show!

Oh goodie; I'm glad I'm not American--I could never decide whether to vote for the man who loves Batman (and NOT Spider-Man) or the man who watches M*A*S*H.

Haha!

I have to say I thought it was funny that McCain likes "Dexter," a TV show about a serial killer...

OMG!! Allison, your postcard was in the mailbox this morning!! YAY! SQUEE! You totally just made my day, now I'm all bouncy!

You are so much better at designing postcards than I can ever hope to be, my dear! I LOVE it!

Yes, my summer is going great so far, what with me building up my super-imperium (more about that via snail mail in private).

Thank you loads for the lovely card (and *yay* I'm your favourite person in Germany *gg*), I needed something like this EXACTLY today (am stuck on fanfic since last night *mehp*)!
