Bowling and Presidents

Last night I went out with a bunch of friends for a night out since we haven't seen each other since graduation. We decided to go bowling for a couple hours. When we got there, at first we started off with our names, and then we went to nicknames, and then somehow we got onto the topic of the election and the candidates. Since there were six of us, we were divided into two teams, and one team wound up being McCain and the other, which I was on, was Obama. We did this because this was probably who we are going to vote for, even though I tried to argue that I wasn't going to vote for the name of the team I was on, I still haven't finished registering to vote for that matter. All six of us got into a huge debate over the election and who we were going to vote for because of the fact that one of the candidates is of African American descent, and the other candidate has a woman as a Vice-President. I really hadn't paid attention to how controversial this election has become just because of those to factors.
