math-hand-160.jpgBlog Guy, areĀ all the campaign debates over with now?

Of course not, italic font-using stranger! As the photos show, both candidates are busy prepping for the crucial Math Debate. The format is, they hold up fingers to answer math questions like, “If you are counting on six states but your opponent seems to be taking five of them away from you, how many do you have left?

I had no idea! So that will be the last debate, then?

No, there’s still the one next week in which all of the questions must be answered in Turkish.

I didn’t even know the candidates spoke Turkish!

Oh, they don’t. It should be a doozy, huh?

Do the right thing. Join the Oddly Enough blog network!

WOW I wonder what happens when they go past ten. Do we get to see their feet.

Nuke the entire world. It doesn’t matter who wins, they can’t clean up the mess that the Bush crime family got away with.

Besides, carnage creates jobs. I’ll tell ya, if I had to choose one way to go, it would be vaporization.

The one with the most toys WILL win.

The candidates are both evil, one who can’t pass the security guidelines (Obama) and one who is George W’s second coming! (McCain)

So Jean is still insisting Obama’s a muslim terrorist? Some people shouldn’t be allowed to leave their house, much less vote.
