Turns out a poll that accurately predicted the outcome of the last two elections involves paper coffee cups at 7-Eleven.
I guess it's the fact that the poll requires the purchase of coffee that has Obama winning even in Utah (59% to John McCain's 41%), Idaho (same percentages) and Arizona (55% to 45%): ain't no conservative Mormons participating in this poll.
Let's hope the poll is an accurate prognosticator this time too.
I love your blog. But - I must rise up in defense of 7-11 coffee, which is the belle of the ball as far as mini mart coffee goes. No matter what time you stagger in, there is always a fresh pot out and another one brewing. Fantastic.
Hi SW--I admit I haven't bought a cup of coffee from 7-Eleven in ages, so I'm basing my judgment of their coffee pretty much on the coffee I've had at other places--which was so terrible I stopped buying coffee at convenience stores some time in the 20th century. I'm glad to know it's possible to get a decent cup of coffee at 1 a.m. without brewing it yourself--especially since there are several 7-Elevens in my neighborhood.
