I would love to see you and my new coworker Randy go at it Siarlys. The guy is a "recent" convert to the Democratic Party (used to be neutral) Ever since he saw the crimes of 2K (all committed by the Republicans) he felt he needed to side with the "good guys".<br>
The guy knows enough to sound intelligent and deflate those he talks to... but I wonder how much he knows if he were to go against someone who actually KNEW what they were talking about instead of broadsiding someone and thinking it makes him look smart. I don't mind listening to him, but wish I had a clue so I could stand and fight.<br>
Oh well, choose your battles and thus far he hasn't crossed the line on religion with me yet to get my vocal.<br>~Lance<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 10:55 AM, Discussion of the Good, Clean Funnies List <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gcfl-discuss@gcfl.net">gcfl-discuss@gcfl.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
I insisted on knowing who she was calling for.<br>
<br>
She told me: the Scott Walker for Governor campaign. (He's a Republican).<br>
<br>
OK, I was willing to answer a few questions.<br>
<br>
I told her in a race between Walker and Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, I<br>
was having a hard time committing myself to vote for either one. That was<br>
a little white lie. I am not inspired by Tom Barrett, but he's done a<br>
competent if uninspiring job of running Milwaukee, and there is NO WAY I<br>
would ever vote for Scott Walker.<br>
<br>
For her purposes, that made me an undecided voter. I hope it makes them a<br>
little overconfident.<br>
<br>
Then she asked how I usually vote. I told her, with complete honest,<br>
usually Democratic, and, to be perfectly clear, I added "Not because the<br>
Democrats are that good, but the Republicans are generally worse. I know<br>
there are some good Republicans out there, but they're not running for<br>
office."<br>
<br>
Its not the first time I've said that, its a common observation when I<br>
talk to people of known Republican loyalties.<br>
<br>
She cooly thanked me for answering her questions. We wished each other a<br>
good day.<br>
