What do I get out of it?

I have been watching the various election coverage. My favorite pieces are when the anchor goes into a restaurant full of old people at 6 am and starts asking who everyone is voting for and why. I have noticed a pattern. Everyone is voting for the candidate of their choice based on what they are going to get out of it. One guy stuffing his face full of donuts and showing his ass crack says I want Obama for free health care. Another bitty wants McCain because he’ll give her a tax cut. No one cares about whether or not these people would be good leaders. They care about what is in it for them. So since I am undecided I have composed a small list of demands. The candidate that fulfills my list of demands before the election gets my vote.
I want a Presidential term’s supply of the beer of my choice. I know a certain Republican runs Brewers and can make it happen.
I want a taser. I think that is pretty self explanatory.
And finally I want a pony.
Since I am undecided this is a prime time for the political parties to step up. Don’t fret third parties, I am completely open to accepting beer, tasers and ponies from you too. Earn my vote!

    I agree. But I’d demand beer, tacos, and pony kegs.

    I should make a list too! Welcome back to blogging. I missed you.

    Me, I want a moat and a crocodile and a large stone wall. Simple stuff, really. That would get my vote!

    I would rather have an electrified moat. Then I can be entertained while I drink my Presidential term’s supply of beer.
