34% of Bush voters in 2000 thought he was his father???

[Raven]

Can this be true? The man at the garden center told me this today. He said that those voters thought they were voting for Papa. Does this mean that there will be people voting for Hillary who think they're voting to return Bill?

2. Well, if the man at the garden center says so--it must be true!

3. One out of three people don't have a clue who Dick Cheney is

So to answer your question, yes. I expect there will be voters who will be pulling the lever for the big dog when they vote Clinton.

7. And a lot more who know the difference between the Clintons who

will still be voting against Bill.

All is not lost.

6. I suspect that a similar percentage don't know that the current

president's father was once a president himself.

I'd like to see that poll. It'd probably be best if they didn't even use the Bush name in the question.

8. We knew you had to be a moron to vote for the Bush boy.

We just didn't know how MUCH of a moron you had to be.

9. It is true that when James Hahn was elected mayor of LA a few years back,

a lot of his support came from people confusing him with his late father Kenneth Hahn, who I understand was a hero of the local civil rights movement.

10. I remember Lewis Black use to rant about it before election 2000.

14. Yes, on Comedy Central, IIRC. "Indecision 2000"

"50% Think he's his father, 38% think they're twins, and 12% will never get that joke!" :rofl:




Or something like that...

11. Made that mistake myself. Bought a bush at the garden center, wife told me to take it back and

exchange it for a shrub.

[Virginia Dare]

12. That's their story and they're sticking to it...n/t

[NewYorkerfromMass]

13. I'll bet it was lot

more like 10% of Bush ditto heads though. 34% seems a bit much.

15. idiots

16. 50% of statistics used in casual conversation are made up.

I do believe that some people did think they were voting for the old man however.
