While walking into a restaurant during lunch today, two professionally dressed men in front of me were talking about the VP picks.
I told them that this election was over. One of them asked, "You think so? Since when?"
I replied, "Well, after the Saddleback interviews, but McCain's pick today just sealed it up for him."
The other guy said something about how the VP picks have been weird.
I then told him that obama blew it by not picking Hillary, and it gave McCain such a great opportunity.
The two guys didn't seem very happy, which confused me. Here are two professionally dressed men, so the odds are that they were Republican and should be happy about the pick.
However, later on I noticed one of the guys had a badge holder with the words "City of Irving" on it. Then I knew: These guys were government workers, which more than likely meant that they were pro-obama. I felt bad for them. It seems they, too, know that the election is over.
