A McCain canvasser came to my mother's door today. I'm not sure how they got her info as an undecided voter, but they did.
The canvasser was a nice, freshly scrubbed young man. Mom says he reminded her of the Mormons who come by once in a while.
Now my mother is the sweetest woman in the world, which makes it all the more devastating when she lowers the boom on someone. Her comic delivery is deadpan, perfect. It usually takes people a few seconds to realize she'd said something snarky. She is also not in any way, shape, or form racist.
He asked her if she'd decided who she was going to vote for. Deciding to have some fun at his expense, she tells him, "Oh, we're all voting for the n*gger."
This poor young man stood there for about 5 seconds with a poleaxed look on his face and his mouth hanging open, at which point she closed the door and went about her day with a smile on her face.
Update: Apparently, people say such things seriously:
