Ahem, No We’re Not

This struck my funny bone:

Down the hall, in the school cafeteria, Republicans from the 8th precinct were preparing to take their own straw vote.

“We’re for Mitt Romney, said Stan Wilcox.

“Ahem, no we’re not,” said his wife Geneva.

“Well, we’re a broken home,” he quipped. Their son had talked Geneva into supporting Paul. Mr. Wilcox had only decided for Romney in the last month. “I was for Fred,” he said. “But he doesn’t want to be president. And I don’t force anybody to do anything they don’t want to do.”

Poor Fred. And I think there are a lot of women out there saying ‘Ahem, no we’re not’ when it comes to supporting patriarchal a-holes like Mitt Romney.
