2. The Obama campaign has buses at these concerts to take people to early vote.

They also collect emails and register people to vote at these concerts.

I thought it was too late to register.

8. Hate to be a fellow negative poster but...

Romney's campaign is on fire and is outdoing us. He is about to announce that Quarter-flash, MC Hammer and Extreme may do a $10 a ticket show for some of his stops! If you are too young to get the references of this joke, Wikipedia can be your friend!

Vanilla Ice. You've got to add a little color to the ticket.
