Forget media bias - what about beer bias?
Barney's Beanery has again launched its Rock the Beer Vote, an informal poll of presidential preference based on which beer customers choose.
McCain supporters can get a frosty draft of Bud Light. Obama endorsers can pull the spigot for a Stella Artois.
Now, really, in Los Angeles (or more accurately West Hollywood, Santa Monica and Pasadena where the venerable restaurant is located), which beer do you think more people will drink? Stella, of course!
Couldn't the Beanery have selected a slightly tastier beer than Bud Light? I know, John McCain's wife, Cindy, is the chair of Hensley & Company, the third largest distributor of Anheuser-Busch beers in the nation. But Anheuser-Busch also distributes Red Hook, Bass and, for that matter, Stella.
Ah well, at least voters will have better choices this time around. In 2004, the beer electorate had to choose between MGD for Bush and Pabst Blue Ribbon for Kerry.
