Whether you're a Bill Maher fan or not, I actually like his idea of "voting for BBQ."

Why? It's bipartisan and everyone can relate to it.
He is on video saying the "BBQ" quote here:
Gap (http://www.gap.com/votefor_videoID=bill_maher - broken link)

In all honesty, it's pretty cool that GAP is behind this - they made this quite creative, and it's probably my favorite ad (cuts through all the other crazy political ads)!

Can I ask, would you vote for BBQ?

BBQ? Isn't that racist? Or does that logic only work when we're talking about Republicans.

is there any other kind? BBQ isn't an adjective, it's a noun.

Actually, pants and politics are alike .... we look for a split in the opposition, so we can work our member into the lower chamber.

It's amusing that when he say's that we shouldn't vote for someone smarter than us some people automatically assume that he is talking about Obama. Do you believe Obama is smarter than McCain?
