Brainless in Seattle
Newhouse News Service offers this man-on-the-street interview about the 2004 election:

Walking in Washington's sun- splashed Lafayette Park across from the White House on a recent afternoon, Jean and Lee Bondurant, tourists from the suburbs of Seattle, said they feel the unfamiliar tension among friends and neighbors.

"I don't like Bush," said Lee Bondurant, a political independent who was laid off from his job at Boeing in 2002 and now teaches computer-aided drafting to college students. "Because he ain't got no smarts. Just listen to the way he speaks. He's damaging our country's image in the world. I think he was put in office by his father."

This reminds us of a gag on an old "All in the Family" episode, in which Archie Bunker complains that someone "don't speak no good English." We guess latter-day Archie Bunkers ain't voting for no Republicans.
