kaleidoscope-2-120.jpgBlog Guy, like most voters, I make my choices based on a candidate’s UFO policies. Who cares more about outer space menaces? Barack Obama or John McCain?

This is a tough one, because I think both men are serious. 

There are photos of Obama spending idle hours between campaign stops scanning the skies with a pocket telescope he always carries. Sometimes he’ll stop in the middle of a speech and have a look for what he calls “them.”

As for McCain, he may already have had a close encounter. There are rumors that a UFO landed right beside him and dragged off several hundred supporters. I can’t confirm this, but I’ve seen a picture.
