Vote for Lando Calrissian!

On the 7B Bus from Park Center to Pentagon, The Conversation of two Obama supporters (young women) who talk like the girls on The Hills.

"I went to Obama's rally in Leesburg, but I couldn't get in, so I stood outside the gate. It was really cool to listen to"
"Yeah, was it crowded?"
"OMG there were so many people there, like, probably 10,000. But everyone was really nice and patient, and didn't push"
"Yeah, McCain's rallies aren't like that. I mean, I've never been to one, but I've heard people say people are mean at them."
"Well, it makes sense. I mean, we're talking about Good and Evil here."
"Yeah."
