Can We Just Agree That You Both Have a Huge Impact on the Election?

Without a doubt, the most important debate at the University of Texas this week took place on the West Mall just 20 minutes ago, featuring an Obama supporter reminding people about his rally in downtown Austin tonight and a Ron Paul supporter handing out flyers about his rally on campus tomorrow:

Paul Supporter: That's not the way it works in other countries.
Obama Supporter: I've been to 25 countries. How many have you been to?
Paul Supporter: Well all I know is that I shouldn't have to be penalized if I don't want health care! I use preventative measures--its called riding a bike, eating well, being outdoors!!

Take THAT, Lance Armstrong! You got cancer because you...didn't eat well, I guess? Hmm. Also, wouldn't you want health care if you were...riding...a...bike?

And just so that I appear unbiased here in my first politically related post ever...to Magellan of the 21st Century, who's been to 25 countries, which I think qualifies you for World Traveler Status on Pan Am: when you are circumnavigating the globe on the Mimi, do me a favor and tell people you're from, let's say, Canada. Thanks.
