Popnography takes politics very seriously (in the way you're sort of obligated to continue taking an ex seriously as you try to convince yourself you've moved on), but I'm still committed to bringing you any number of trivial pieces of information on which to base your love for the 2008 candidates.
With that in mind -- they say you can tell a lot about a (wo)man by the car they drive. Or at least as much as you can tell by the time their stump speech gets recycled a million times!
Asked by The AP what they drive, eco-conscious Hillary Clinton, Chris Dodd, John Edwards and Sam Brownback all reported hybrids (that is, when the Secret Service "lets" Hillary drive). John McCain fesses up to a Cadillac CTS luxury sedan. Mike Huckabee works the country image in a 1995 Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck. New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson cruises the desert in a Wrangler. Mitt Romney digs his 2005 Ford Mustang convertible. Motormouth Joe Biden still has his 1967 Corvette. Long-legged Barack Obama needs the Chrysler 300C, a full-size sedan. Dennis Kucinich crams into a Ford Focus - a compact, like him. Rudy Giuliani? "I don't drive," he says. "I navigate."
One more eco-friendly plug for TerraPass here to make my political humor more carbon neutral. Love your mother (earth)! Check them out!
I will vote for anyone who doesn't drive an American vehicle - they are nearly all crap! Are the Hill, Chris, John, and Sam "hybrids" Priuses?
