Disheartening Cab Ride

Cab Driver:: Did you vote for Obama today?

Me:: Sure did, did you?

Cab Driver:: Nahhh, didn't register.

Me:: Why not?

Cab Driver:: Long lines. Didn't want to spend all day at the polls.

Me:: It's really important that everyone votes.

Cab Driver:: Yeah I guess. Obama will win by a landslide.

Me:: Well, let's hope so. You should have voted.

Cab Driver:: Out where I live in Rockaway there's lots of McCain/Palin signs. If you ask me, they're all idiots.

Me:: To be honest, you're not really entitled to an opinion if you chose not to vote.

- - silence - -

(I asked for $12 back in change, he only had $11)

Me:: I'll let you keep that dollar if you promise to vote in the next election.

Cab Driver:: Maybe.
