***THE GET OUT THE VOTE SILLINESS THREAD***

[Lucky9teen]

How about some silliness to help ease the tension of the day...

"A new study estimates that only 3.4 percent of Americans will vote in the midterm elections next month. But on the bright side, 100 percent will still complain about the results." –Jimmy Fallon

"At a polling station while President Obama was standing next to a woman, a man shouted out, 'Hey, Mr. President, stay away from my girlfriend.' He didn't say this because Obama was flirting with her, but because his girlfriend is a Democrat running for re-election." –Conan O'Brien

"Today President Obama gave a speech in California to motivate young voters by discussing his commitment to new technology. Ironically, nobody heard him because they were all staring at their phones." –Jimmy Fallon

"People running for re-election are distancing themselves from President Obama. He's very lonely. He has no close friends in the White House. In fact, an intruder hopped the fence on Sunday, made it all the way to White House, and Obama begged him to stay and watch football." –David Letterman

"A candidate for governor in Arkansas has revealed he used to be a male stripper. The stripper-turned-candidate is encouraging everyone to head to the polls next Tuesday. And also to go out and vote." –Craig Ferguson

"The White House has decided not to send President Obama to campaign in battleground states because his low approval ratings could hurt Democrats. They're only sending him where he can't do any damage — or as that's also known, 'The Biden Circuit.'" –Jimmy Fallon 

"President Obama played his 200th round of golf yesterday. Then Democrats said, 'You know what? He can do whatever he wants as long as he's not trying to campaign for us.'" –Jimmy Fallon

"Over the weekend President Obama told Americans not to panic about Ebola. Then when asked about the Democrats' chances in the upcoming midterm elections, Obama said, 'Man, that Ebola sure is scary.'" –Conan O'Brien

"During a campaign event, former presidential nominee Bob Dole told the crowd that Mitt Romney should run for president in 2016. If there's anyone who knows that the third time is a charm, it's a guy who lost three times." -Jimmy Fallon

"While Mitt Romney was in Nebraska at a campaign rally to support a local Senate candidate this week, the crowd started chanting, “Run, Mitt, Run.” And now, nobody can find Mitt Romney." -Seth Meyers

"President Obama was in California over the weekend to attend a fundraiser hosted by the creator of 'Farmville.' Obama and the creator of 'Farmville' have a lot in common. They both really wish it was still 2009." –Jimmy Fallon

"Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said today that the 2014 midterms will be a victory for Republicans thanks to Obamacare. Coincidentally, 'Reince Priebus' sounds like something that might be covered under Obamacare." –Seth Meyers

"Cosmo magazine is encouraging female students in North Carolina to vote by offering a party bus to the voting polls that includes shirtless male models — just as our forefathers intended." –Conan O'Brien

"Right around the corner is the midterm elections. There's an anti-incumbent mood in the country. People are sick and tired of people who have been in the job too long and are lazy and overpaid and out of ideas. Wait a minute. I'm sorry. That's me." –David Letterman

"House Majority Leader Eric Cantor was defeated in the primary election. He spent $5 million on his primary campaign. Ladies and gentlemen, what is wrong with this country when you can no longer buy an election?" –David Letterman

I just voted in Pittsburgh.

There is no Republican candidate for Federal Representative.

There is no Republican candidate for State Senator from my District(k).

There is no Republican candidate for State Representative from my District.

I remember elections in Iraq - Saddam Hussein got 100% of the vote.

Same with Communist Russia - the Party nominee got all the votes.

There were "monitors" walking around, one had a tag thet said "Minority" - I said "Oh, you're a Republican?" She replied "No, I'm an Arab."

I asked another guy with one of those "Minority" tags, "Are you a Republican?"

"No, he said. Just because I have a 'Minority' tag, doesn't mean I'm not a Democrat."

F@ck this country - it stinks.

The guy at the voting booths tried to give me a I voted sticker. I told him that I didn't want to walk around wearing that because people will hold me responsible for the lying thieves in office. I said, it don't matter what party wins, they are all lying thieves. He didn't like that and I didn't give a rats keyster. That is the first time I have ever said that and got a bad response. Every body, be it demorat or Republican agrees when I say they are all lying thieves. I know er hope there is one out there that isn't a lying thief. Seems to me the Average American can't stand any of our politicians. The demorats and Republican voters seem to hold their knows when they vote. I can't remember the last demorat I voted for and I know I voted for a lot of Republicans that I wouldn't water if they were on fire, but I had to cause the demorat was a scum bag.

I am done ranting. At least the House and Senate should be able to stand up against the White House now. We will see though. Keep your eye on them Rinos, they can mess it up for everybody.
