The Sad State of Politics in America

I just got a telemarketer call which the caller ID listed as simply “Political Call”. The girl, she sounded quite young, said she was representing the Republican Majority Campaign which is some type of Republican PAC group. I decided to humor her and actually have a conversation. It went like this…

Call-Girl: “Who do you plan on voting for in the November election, Barak Obama or John McCain?”
Me: “Are those my only two choices?”
Call-Girl: “Uh, yea.”
Me: “Well, if those are the only two whom I have to decided between, I will vote for John McCain, but for the actual election, I am considering other parties.”
Call-Girl: “Uh…Hillary Clinton has dropped out. And uh…Ron Paul has dropped out. So, uh…those are the only two candidates left.”
Me: “…Sure.”
Call-Girl: “Uh…bye.”

That PAC is getting there money's worth.
