Street Talkers: Election ’08

Thirteen months from now YOU will choose a new president. So, if you know more about YouTube’s Obama Girl than you do about Barack’s policies, if you’re hot for Hillary yet don’t know her take on gay marriage, if you’re McLovin’ McCain or a Kucinich chick just ’cause you think he’s “nice,” you better start doing your research. Recently, we asked 10 of our NYC-based readers this question: If the election wree held tomorrow, who would get your vote?

Name: Michelle
Age: 38
Residence: Long Island
Occupation: Bookkeeper

Your Vote: Shamefully, I do not know the candidates well enough to make an informed decision. I have been completely disillusioned by politicians of late. As the elections get closer I would be able to give a more exact answer.

Do gay issues affect your choice? Yes, it does influence my choice. A closed-minded politician would quickly loose my vote.
