A lot of liberals hate Hummers, but a lot of conservatives hate Priuses.

What are the first thoughts you have when you see:

1. A Hummer
2. A Prius

I don't see many hummers any more, and I see tons of Priuses where I live, 95% of them have obama sti ckers on them, and they are also horrible drivers.

I'm a moderate. I hate hummers. They're ugly and take up too much room in parking lots. My vote is still out on the Prius. Needs to be around a bit longer to see if it is the real deal.


And for what it's worth: I strongly dislike the new Mustangs.

Here in Palm Springs, I see lots of Hummers. This may be the only city where it seems like there's an equal number of Hummers and Priuses on the road. We've got an interesting combination of liberals and libertarians in this area.

I hate the way Hummer looks and my sister got into a bad car accident who was hit by a woman with a big Hummer. I have never seen Hummer or Prius used politically.....

It's a beautiful day, why aren't you college kids out playing Frisbee and soaking up some Vitamin D to get rid of the hangover you should have from last night instead of thinking up threads like this?


For the record, this conservative doesn't like, or dislike, either. I know one person with a Prius (she can't afford to drive it) and I don't know anyone with a Hummer. Using Hummer as an exemplar is kind of dumb now that the brand has been killed. I would imagine the next "bad" vehicle will be a Tahoe or Expedition.
