2008 Election - Mac vs PC

I saw this picture on Brody Harper's blog the other day, and I thought it was quite funny. I also thought it summarized the election pretty well. It's a takeoff from those popular Mac commercials. Personally, I think those Mac commercials are great, but that's not the point. In this election I see...

Barack Obama - young, hip politician. Doesn't always wear a suit. Would look cool in jeans and a sweatshirt. He has celebrities on his side. He's the cool pick. He's promising change, which I would like to see. But unlike a Mac, I don't know if he works. I mean, I don't know if his plans work, and I have some big questions.
John McCain - Old-school politician. Always wears a suit. Not the popular choice. Appeals to older people, and people who probably use a PC. Has some issues, like PC's. Traditional Washington DC politician, and frankly I'm tired of traditional politicians. I'm not a big fan of all his plans either.
So, that is how I see the election - very similar to the Mac vs PC adds. Honestly, I don't know who I'm voting for in this election, which is weird for me to say. Frankly, I don't like either candidate, but I do believe in voting. I have a voice here in America, and I need to use it. I feel that if I don't vote, I can't complain when the new administration takes office. So, who will I vote for - the PC or Mac - I don't know, even though I do like Macs. We'll see come November.

If you're tuned in to the convention, you may find he's not as old school as you think. And Sarah Palin...YES!
