1. All polls should have the option to vote for boobies.

2. I second that --- boobies should always be the "option of last resort"
Edited on Wed Jul-21-04 05:04 PM by mark11727
For example:

"Who would you rather have a beer with?"

A: George W. Bush

B: John F. Kerry

C: Boobies

5. That's kindof like...
If you didn't like Bush or Gore, you had to vote Nader. It's not fair.

6. Word, that.
Boobies is the perpetual spoiler candidate.

Including it an any poll is guaranteed to skew the results.

For example:

"What's your political affiliation?"

A: Progressive/Democrat

B: Liberal/Democrat

C: Independent

D: Conservative/Republican

E: Neo-Conservative/Republican

F: Boobies

... I see where you're getting at with this.

7. I see your point.
Had the 2000 elections been:

Bush
Gore
Boobies

Boobies would have taken every state but Florida!
