Are you REALLY undecided or just stupid?

Lex has pretty much tuned out of the MSM. No more talking cable heads – not even Fox. No more nightly news with some high priced liberal news reader telling me what is important and how I ought to think about what they think is important. I mostly ignored the conventions, but how could you ignore Palin’s speech?

Long summer days were better spent outside in the yard, watching little league baseball, going to Scout camp, pitching corn hole or sharing a beer with the neighborhood men across the swale. Now the days are short and we’re being forced back indoors earlier and earlier each evening where we’re faced with a TV choice between the gay and lesbian lip sync contest and two partisan political blowhards shouting at each other for an hour.

So we head back outside to share a beer in the dark with the neighborhood men across the swale.

To make matters worse, it’s an election year. We have 60 more days of charge and counter charge and fools like Matt Damon talking about dinosaurs roaming the Earth 4,000 years ago. I wish we could vote today.

But alas, the undecideds need more time. These people have to be retarded or just want people to think that they are sophisticated because they are too stupid to make up their minds. Given the stark differences between the two candidates, it should be an easy choice. Or maybe it’s that they’ve spent their entire summer outside in the yard, watching little league baseball, going to Scout camp, pitching corn hole or sharing a beer with the neighborhood men across the swale.

Anyway, is the fact that McCain is 72 years old going to be enough for a conservative to say to himself, “well, better to have know nothing, do nothing, be nothing tax and spend liberal as president than a conservative who might just die while in office.” I doubt it.

Is the fact that B-HO is a know nothing, do nothing, be nothing tax and spend liberal who has surrounded himself with nefarious characters to promote his political career going to be enough for the average Lib to say to himself, “sure B-HO will probably do his best to destroy the country, but isn’t that what we want? Oh and he’s black. I’d better vote for honorable war hero.” We'll see.

We need a quasi parliamentary system. When Lex tires of the political season, Lex can call for elections within ten days. If you haven’t decided by now, you’ll only be holding up line trying to decide when you go into the booth. Let’s vote.
