My wife and I voted by absentee ballot. One of the offices we didn't really care about was Lieutenant Governor. Really - what the heck is this? The VP of goverrnorships?

Anyway, I had no preference until earlier in the day when I heard a commercial for Tom McClintock. Technically, it was a commercial AGAINST him by his opponent - whathisface.

Here's the quote from the commercial. Setup - they're talking about how out of touch Tom McClintock is with the voters.

Woman's Voice: Providing abortions for the poor would be like “Providing scotch for the wino lying in the gutter.”

I almost drove off the road. I still laugh when I think of this line. Later that evening, I cast a ballot for Tom.

You know - it's true. It DOES pay to advertise.
