7-11 Rigs Election. (Well, the coffee election, that is)

This morning I had to make a quick stop at a local 7-11. Okay, I didn't have to, as no one HAS to, but I made the stop to get a quick juice to start my day.

After my trip to the fridge and grabbing a tasty Tropicana, I walked past the coffee machines towards the register.

I had forgotten 7-11 had yet another coffee voting promotion involving today's most exciting Election Day.

For those unaware, 7-11 has two sets of coffee cups. Those supporting McCain, and those supporting Obama. Whichever candidate sells more cups, that president will be the victor - at least in the eyes of the food/gas chain.

Curiosity sank in. Though not a coffee drinker, I wanted to see what the cups looked like and to consider taking part in the harmless activities.

Unfortunately, my choices were instantly minimized upon seeing the one row of basic coffee cups, and three tall rows of John McCain Cups.

Where were the Obama cups? There didn't even seem to be a space for them.

I'm thinking conspiracy. And there's nothing worse than a conspiracy spearheaded by the stock boy at a local gas-n-gulp.

Don't get me wrong - I think McCain would totally have defeated Obama by the hundreds of thousands in the coffee election... but mostly because most Obama supporters probably get their coffee from Starbucks.
