I'm sure turnout was impacted by a considerable number of unemployed people with nothing more to do than attend, and who make their voting decisions based on nothing more than race. That sounds awful to suggest, but think about it.

The Rednecks For Obama set up a table on the left, & the Ballers for Barack put on a dribbling display on the right-hand side of the entrance.

Thanks for the links. I didn't read them. Indiana is a battleground state, so "they" say, and the attention of both candidates is focused here accordingly. I'm glad you can speak for the entire state when you claim to enjoy the "heapin' helpin'."

Oh, "unemployed" means "nothing better to do."

You weren't expected to -- Ballers For Barack & RedNecks 4 Obama are doggone self-explanatory, doncha think? They represent the winning of hearts & minds that the man from the Land of Lincoln has masterfully managed to accomplish.

Hoosiers're fed up w/ pointy-headed Southern Men With Northern Principles (not to mention Arkansas Ma Hillary) meddling in foreign entanglements. It's time for the heartland once again to take center stage & keep an eye on those whose heads would rear up against working men & women.

I resemble that remark. What w/ the out-of-town gang bored w/ themselves & itching to come back, my fine feline friend-or-fink, we need to watch each others' backs in defending American values.
