Flying Saucer promotion pits Obama vs. Romney with beer

    Who said voting is free?: Mike DamanteWho said voting is free?: Mike Damante

    As of Oct. 11, Mitt Romney is ahead of Barack Obama. Well, that is according to Flying Saucer’s unofficial poll/glassware promotion.

    For $7 patrons can choose between Obama and Romney souvenir glasses, and with each glass purchased a tally is put up on a large banner in the bar next to the appropriate candidate’s caricature. The glasses aren’t in yet, but are expected to be in early next week. Those who “vote” will get vouchers and will be able to cash in for the glasses. The results of this mock election will be revealed on Oct. 31.

    Romney currently leads Obama 11-7 on the Flying Saucer scoreboard and waitress Brittany Corcoran doesn’t think it looks good for the incumbent.

    “I don’t know about Obama catching up,” Corcoran said. “This is Texas.”

    In actual polls , the score is a lot closer than Flying Saucer’s non-scientific social experiment. Seeing the deficit on the scoreboard should be a call to arms for liberal beer drinkers.

    “The Republicans are out in force and the Democrats are buying glasses just to keep it close,” said bartender Brady Conine. “The other day two Republicans bought Romney glasses that prompted a Democrat sitting behind them to buy two.”

    Did the Democrat use Taxpayer funds? I'm surprised the Democrat didn't just demand it as being "entitled" to a FREE Glass.

    Lame comment from a lame poster.

    Lame? I guess you are working on your SSI Disability Claim. More people have filed for Disability during Obama's term than any previous POTUS. That makes one wonder why all of the sudden, so many more people are "unable to work" since Obama was elected. Maybe those Lifeline Free Cell Phones passed under the other Give Away POTUS, William Clinton, are causing brain damage to their users and they are now unable to work for a living or maybe they are too busy calling to see when their next welfare check is going to arrive to go get a job?

    Oh no, totally true and spot on.

    I dont know if the democrat demanded an entitlement, but I am sure the two republicans paid for their beers out of their massive tax break since they were part of the 1%. They were probably celebrating crushing some American jobs by offshoring them and ordered a Chinese beer to celebrate their real benefactors!

    And in keeping with their theme of pro-voter fraud, the Democrat voted twice!

    At least the republicans contribute money to help lower the tremendous deficit created by Obama while the Democrat is likely one of the 47% that pay no federal taxes, leaving 53% of Americans (likely all republicans) paying for the rest. If you are ignorant enough to believe that it is fair for 53% of Americans to pay for 100% of the Budget, then obviously you are a non-contributory person-go buy some more prime rib with your Lone Star Card paid for by the true Americans that support this Country or go renew your Socialist Party Membership Card-you can stand in line behind BHO while renewing your card.

    The question was who drinks more beer, Republicans or Democrats. The answer is yes.

    Mormons don't believe in drinking alchol or caffeine drinks. So guess Romney really doesn't care.
