Voting

It’s getting pretty sad when an Onion article is so close to the truth:

According to Gallup Poll results released Monday, 6 percent of Americans are still undecided about whether to vote against President Bush or Democratic challenger John Kerry in November’s presidential election.
“At first, I was really leaning toward voting against Kerry, because the way he tried to hide his ambivalence about his military service made him seem like a political operator,” poll participant and Trenton, NJ resident Amber Barthelme said. “But then, the Bush Administration’s mishandling of the Iraqi prisoner-abuse scandal got me thinking that there’s a lot to not like about the current administration. It’s almost impossible to decide which side I don’t want to be on.”
[…] Tina Schalek, a Branson, MO theater manager, said she is also undecided. “John Kerry’s only virtue is that he hasn’t been in a position to make any major mistakes,” Schalek said. “On the other hand, I hate Bush’s views on abortion. My only consolation is that a vote against either candidate is a vote against Nader.”
