For one day, Mad Cal will be Politi-Cal

6 reasons I am voting for George Bush

1. Gov. vs. Sen I believe former governors make better Presidents than former senators. The duties are more similiar, although on a much larger scale. I don't remember the exact numbers, but there have been much more former govs than former sens who have resided in the White House.

2. The Color Pink John Kerry wears a lot of pink ties. I do not like the color pink.

3. 'NASCAR Dads' Though I am not a dad, I am a NASCAR fan. Air Force One flying by Daytona International Speedway during the Daytona 500 was one of the coolest NASCAR images this year. (Other cool NASCAR moments: Jimmie Johnson's move to split 2 cars en route to victory at the Coca Cola 600 and all of Jeff Gordon's victories)

4. The Clinton Factor Most Bush supporters really like George W, while a lot of Kerry supporters seem to have a anyone-but-Bush attitude. I think some of the top Democrats are secretly waiting for Hillary Clinton to run in 2008 when there would not be an incumbent Republican. If Kerry wins, Mrs. Clinton will have to wait even longer. And I know know her husband Bill wants to be back in the White House.

5. The Heinz Factor I don't use ketchup. Only mustard and barbeque sauce on my burgers and hot dogs.

6. Baseball Kerry claims to be a Red Sox fan, yet he siad, if forced to choose one, he would rather win the election than see the Red Sox win the World Series. (Bastard!) Then there was the 'pitch' he threw from about 45 feet at Fenway which travelled about 37 feet. That strike that Bush threw at Yankee Stadium after 9/11 from the mound while wearing that bulletproof vest was so amazing that it inspired an episode of The West Wing. (President Bartlett had to practice throwing with a vest on for a ceremony at Camden yards.)


And I guess there's all that stuff about foriegn policy and whatever, but I'm voting in California, so it matters little. I wish we were a battleground state. That would be so much more exciting.


Bonus presidential note: When I run for President in 2016 or 2020, I will promise to ban pop-up ads and spyware under penalty of death. I think my computer may be infected with some speed-eating bacteria.
