Obama voters: suckers come in more than one color.
Just the other day, I was having a sandwich at Carusos in Hayden. I happened to be wearing a ‘Viva la Reagan Revolucion!’ t-shirt – you know – the one that mocks the iconic Che Guevera model. A younger guy got up from his seat with his family, came over to me and said, “I really like your t-shirt.” Before I could reply around a mouthful of BLT, he continued, “I’m afraid for this country. I don’t know what to do…”
That gave me a chance to think, swallow my mouthful, and I responded with this: “I know. There is no good outcome from this election. Defend your life, defend your family, don’t give in and – keep your powder dry.” He thought for a second, nodded in agreement and walked away.
Wow. When strangers come up to you and say things like that, you know that what has occurred to us is doubtless occurring to many others.
The animated contest awaits us all, I think. My tagline makes more sense with each passing day.
