I was talking to a friend of mine who doesn't follow politics
closely but does vote and occasionally watches the news. She told a
friend of hers that she planned to vote for Obama. Her friend
replied that she was voting for "McLean" because Obama's wife is
too militant and his best friend wanted to blow up the
Pentagon.
Whether this ancedotal evidence means that Obama has his work
cut out for him or that McCain will lose because people don't know
how to spell his name, I don't know.
