Dog Owners, Get It Sorted!


Supposedly pet owners--especially dog owners--support McCain. According to this AP story, polling data show:

—All pet owners: McCain, 42 percent; Obama 37 percent; Nader, 3 percent; other, 3 percent; undecided, 14 percent. Margin of error, plus or minus 2.9 points.

—Do not own a pet: Obama, 48 percent; McCain, 34 percent; Nader, 3 percent; other, 3 percent; undecided, 12 percent. Margin of error, 4.1 points.

—Dog owners: McCain, 43 percent; Obama, 34 percent; Nader, 3 percent; other, 3 percent, undecided, 12 percent. Margin of error, 3.6 points.

—Cat owners: McCain, 41 percent; Obama, 38 percent; Nader, 3 percent; other, 4 percent; undecided, 14 percent. Margin of error 3.9 points.

This is surprising--people other than Nader support Nader? Oh, I mean, they need me out there on the campaign trail!

I don't believe it either. Dog people for McCain? Maybe those pups haven't been working hard enough on campaigning around their houses. Threaten a few pee spots on the bed and that should be enough to convert those owners.
