The NASCAR vote? Are you shitting me?
CNN has been discussing this "crucial" Bush-friendly demographic all day. Lessee, beer-drinkers who enjoys watching rednecks cavort recklessly in endless circles to no real end other than pointless violence, with no regard for the amount of oil they're wasting. Yeah, I can see how Shrub would covet this demo.

What about the Wrestling vote?
The Steven Seagal-Boxset vote?
The Fear Factor vote?
The reruns of Mannix vote?
The Monster Truck Rally vote?

Why are these segments of Lowest Common Denominator America being denied their voice?

2. Just CNN doing what they do best...


Whoring for Bush...

Where is the Kerry demographic, complete with one of their commentators dressed in the outfit and endorsing the entire thing?

All this is about is CNN trying to help Bush with the union workers that are not at all happy about getting sacked.

The Repukes can't run on the issues this election, so they are trying to make it a culture war...

And CNN is more than happy to help with that...

6. nice to see such a progressive view..
Lessee, beer-drinkers who enjoys watching rednecks cavort recklessly in endless circles to no real end other than pointless violence, with no regard for the amount of oil they're wasting.

When I go to the race this Sunday, I'll let the 150,000 or so rednecks know that it's all just "pointless violence". If you're sick of hearing about the NASCAR demographic, then do what I do when I'm sick to death of hearing about Survivor or American Idol.. switch the channel.

9. Don't forget, too....
That 75,000,000 Americans consider themselves NASCAR fans...

I'm sure they'd all love to read that description of them... I'm sure they'd jump at the chance to vote for John Kerry then...

Heyo

8. Bush is going to win the drunken redneck vote
And this is news?

And before I get flamed, yes, I know that not all Nascar fans are drunken rednecks. But after yesterday's shower of beer cans at Talladega, please don't try to pretend they're not one of the biggest fan bases of the sport.
