I can't believe someone took the time to do this poll. I also can't believe someone took the time to write a story about it too.

They must have only polled pit bull and hunting dog owners.

Pure puppy love?. "HA!." - After 143 days of work experience, Obamaism believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World, and fill the shoes of Abraham Lincoln, FDR, JFK and Ronald Reagan. 143 days. I keep leftovers in my refrigerator longer than that. In contrast, John McCain's 26 years in Congress, 22 years of military service including 1,966 days in captivity as a POW in Hanoi now seem more impressive than ever." So there you go, 143 days. So this is the key. All of these so-called flip-flops, all these changes in position, they are due to his inexperience. His inexperience and his incompetence lead him to make goofs, to lie, to flounder around. I think if people see Obamaism as dangerously incompetent and floundering, it might lessen his appeal.

Not this pet owner, no way, no thanks. Perhaps they really meant those who wear dentures prefer McCain. McCain reminds me of Mike Meyers in Wayne's World when he does than goofy little grin and sticks both thumbs in the air. The article forgot to mention the three legged, one eyed pit bull that lives in the white house -Dick Cheney.
I think most White House pets have been fair more popular than their owners whether they are Demo or Rep.
Many voters seem to forget that we haven't elected a Senator to the White House since Kennedy.

Not an accurate poll based on my experience. Most pet owners that I know have much more sense than to vote for 4 more years of Bush.

I'm a pet owner and i'm voting for McCain. Unless, of course, liberals call me names. That would really make me stop and think.
