5. Better that they go to a message board and post their illogical ...
arguments, than they go vote for McCain.

Eventually most people who read and post here, (even Hillary die-hard supporters) will realize that sitting home on election day, or voting for McSame is NOT going to help them. They'll go to the other Pizza place, if they really want a pizza. IMO

2. ...the point being that just because some voters' "favorite pizza place" was Clinton...
...that doesn't mean that they'll either "go hungry" or "order Chinese" in November.

8. Ahhh...the "I'll just run for President myself" voter!
I didn't include it because I don't think it's a large group demographically.

12. See Post #8 above...
...point taken, but not many people will try to solve the problem by running for President themselves.

13. You forgot the option
"Spread rumors, write LTTE, post flyers, and make anonymous calls to the Health Department saying that all the remaining pizza parlors are secretly whizzing on their pizzas before turning them over to their customers. Do your best to make sure that no one in town buys pizza from any other outlet."

15. Actually, where I live...
...there are numerous pizza places, all owned by old-skool italian guys, all of them excellent. A dozen or so of the best pizza places in the world, all within a few blocks of my house. I have one favorite, but the next best is still a thousand times better than your tired, corporate pizza chain.

I'm not going to vote in your silly poll!

And, FWIW - if I don't want pizza, I can order Thai, French, Middle-Eastern, Tuscan, Southern Home-Cooking, BBQ, Japanese, Mexican, Cajun, Argentinian, Peruvian, Jamaican, Korean, Australian, Vegan, Dominican, Belgian, Indian, or even... yes... Chinese! And it will all be here in a half an hour or so.

God, I love where I live!

23. Insult and attack the aficionados of the other pizza place
by calling them cultists, and blaming them for the end of the world as we know it.

30. Here at DU, another alternative is frozen pizza. Tombstone is my favorite.
Some DUers like Tombstone, as well, and have experienced Tombstone moments right here.
