Smiling Politicians

You know, one thing that really scares me about John McCain is his smile. Now in all honesty, he has a good smile, a very nice smile, a broad smile. But it seems so automatic. When I watch  him in action, talking to people, working the crowd, I’m struck by how when he’s not talking (and especially when there are cameras around), as soon as he’s done talking, out comes the big ole’ smile. For some reason, I have a hard time looking at that. I guess that I know that as a policitian, he’d be giving me a big ole smile at the same time he was f***ing me up the *ss!  Yes, all politicians do that, but he’s so good at smiling while doing that. At least Obama doesn’t keep turning on that big ole smile. Now to be honest, he’s not been a politician long enough to get the ego big enough to allow him to do that. Give him time, and I’m sure he’ll learn how to do it.

Well, I’m confident that, whoever’s elected in this go-round, I’ll get screwed. Just not sure how big the smile will be. Cynical, you say? No, just realistic.
