1. How do I stop laughing long enough to vote? Answer me that, Writer!
I'm anxiously awaiting for the Obama scrapbookers to weigh in.

15. Of scrapbookers responding so far:
5 of the 6 support Obama.

100% of Clinton scrapbookers believe sexism played a role in this campaign.

20% of Obama scrapbookers believe sexism played a role in this campaign. Meaning 80% do not believe sexism played a role in this campaign.

that I can grab that last bag of googly eyes off the shelf at Michael's before I'm attacked by a mad scrapbooker.

6. I scrapbook after I travel abroad. Does that count?

Sigh...though with the dollar where it is and with fuel prices where they are, my odd-numbered-year Elitist Adventures may be coming to a close...

If you're going to use it as a verb, you need to be more enthusiastic about it.

10. Other: Sexism did play a role, but it was propagated by the media to be used against Obama
Hillary is apparently willing to go along.

19. I wonder what's IN the scrapbooks?
Just lots of pictures of Obama rallies, or old pictures of Bill and Hillary with their huge 60's hair?

22. Ha! Ha! Picture the credits sequence of "Seven."
That I think is the nature of many of these scrapbooks.

24. But I haven't seen it. I walked into the theater for it once by accident
I could tell something was wrong because most of the previews were for very violent films and the audience seemed a little different - well, a LOT different - from most of the movies I go to. Eventually the showed a preview of the movie we had come to see, and we figured out we were in the wrong place! So I never did see it.

25. If you're a squeamish sort, that's probably for the best.
It's a pretty grisly film, filled with gruesome scrapbooks kept by the maniac.

28. LAUGH! Thanks for the warning!
Now I will definitely never see it.

As an aside, it's a very interesting experience to walk into a theater for a movie you would never see - you get an entirely different kind of previews, that's for sure!

21. I don't scrapbook, I scrapbox
As in, the pictures/memorabilia go into the box, where it remains unadorned and unarranged.

30. I am an Obama supporter I scrap book
and I believe both racism and sexism played a role in this campaign. Bill and his Rovian comment about Jessie Jackson was disgusting. The Chris Mathews and the media bias injected sexism into this campaign. I hope to live to see the day when America is past this Bull Shit.

33. I THINK THIS POLL ULTIMATELY PROVES...
THAT HILLARY CLINTON HAS LOST HER BID FOR THE PRESIDENCY BECAUSE OF THE SCRAPBOOKING INFESTATION AMONG MODERN AMERICAN WOMEN.

I NOW REST MY CASE.
