A Question

I've been seeing a number of Dem-leaning vote jokes (e.g. "Democrats vote Nov. 2, Republicans vote Nov. 3"; "Kerry voters drive with your headlights on during the day, Bush voters drive with your headlights off during the night").

Does anyone out there live in a Republican-leaning area, and are there similar Rep-leaning vote jokes circulating there? I'm curious if it's bipartisan or a party-out-of-power response.

I've been seeing both. emails circulating with the exact same content, only the parties switched.

Life in a swing state!

I'm not in a swing state, and I see both styles, too.

Living in the Republican Bastion

El Dorado County is so republican it squeaks. The president of the N. Cal. Christian Coalition lives about 1.5 miles from my house.

I haven't heard any similar anti-kerry jokes, just a lot of really over the top bumper-stickers.

However, all the Bush/Cheney BIG signs have been vandalised, but the Kerry ones have not.

I actually don't like those jokes at all. Feh. I admit to sniggering over jokes about those in the administration. A lot, in fact.

But not jokes about disenfranchising everyday voters. That just annoyes me.

Believe it or not, I actually agree with you.

*And with a CLUNK, the world stops spinning*

Wow...we agreed! ;)

Heck, it's just a matter of not insulting one's neighbors, in my opinion...
