today’s amused observation

I woke up this morning with many things to do, only to realize I was out of coffee.  So, en route to the laundromat, I stopped at 7-Eleven.  I didn’t realize it was Free Coffee Day until I was inside and told that I had made the deadline by 15 minutes.  Which explained the crowd around the coffee makers.

Now, in case you aren’t familiar, 7-Eleven hold a 7-Election during national political decisions, offering a cup for each candidate, and your choice counts as a “vote” in their poll.  I’ll be interested to see how the results look after today, because those were the only cups available in which to put free coffee.  What I did notice was this: Every single person there for free coffee at the time had Obama cups.  (Myself included, obviously!)  And the Obama stack was depleted, while the Romney stack was still tall.

I find this comforting.

Of course, Romney would just probably say this just proves his point.
