Who will they vote for? #12

Excerpt from this article

A boy in his mid-teens learned Wednesday afternoon that it is not a good idea to try to rob a former U.S. Marine at knifepoint, even if the former Marine is 84 years old, police said today.

Santa Rosa police Sgt. Steve Bair said that's what happened around 2 p.m. in the 1600 block of Fourth Street. The elderly man was walking with a grocery bag in each arm when the boy approached him with a large knife, Bair said.

The boy said, "Old man, give me your wallet or I'll cut you," Bair said. The man told the boy he was a former Marine who fought in three wars and had been threatened with knives and bayonets, Bair said.

The man then put his bags on the ground and told the boy that if he stepped closer he would be sorry. When the boy stepped closer, the man kicked him in the groin, knocking him to the sidewalk, Bair said. The ex-Marine picked up his grocery bags and walked home, leaving the boy doubled over, Bair said.

The man reported the attempted robbery to police 45 minutes later.


Here's the question.

Who does the 84 year old marine vote for this November?

The unifier of Hugo Chavez and Reverend Wright, Obamania.

John McCain

Ralph Nader

Part Two

Let's assume the attacker is actually 18, who does he vote for?

I'm assuming you're talking about the 18 year old.

Of course. Now the former Marine maybe an FDR democrat, and some of that thinking is hard to break, but my money would be on McCain.

Even if the 84 year old was an FDR man, I'm sure he would vote for McCain. Mainly because FDR himself would probably vote for McCain. Let's face it: McCain probably voted for FDR. :-)
