FOX News released a new presidential preference poll today.  It included one question, in particular, that made me laugh.

8.  Recently there's been some discussion about presidential candidates wearing or not wearing American flag lapel pins.  Do you care whether a candidate is wearing an American flag lapel pin or not? 
                                          Yes         No        (Don't know)
   17-18 Jun 08                   31%       66                3
   Democrats                       22%       75                2
   Republicans                    40%        57                3
   Independents                  31%        65                4

Alot of you know where this is headed.  John McCain never wears American flag lapel pins!!!  I've looked through hundreds of McCain photos.  No lapel pins.  There are YouTube videos and several websites (a couple examples here and here) that chronicle the John McCain/No lapel pin story

For those 40% of Republicans who care whether your candidate wears an American flag lapel pin, you might consider looking around for a presidential candidate who shares your values.
