"Good luck with that voucher"

A colleague at work, buoyed by media spin that transforms rMoney losing in most polls to rMoney surging ahead, wondered if I had booked my flight to Canada, presumably because I would be fleeing the country.

I thought about that, and after listening to a particularly obnoxious asshole ranting on about the rightwing mythology while canvassing voters yesterday, decided to respond as follows:

"I'm 61, really this isn't going to affect me that much, but you know, if you are right, good luck with that medicare voucher."

There was no response.
