overheard in the texas panhandle: "Ev-er-y-thing's gonna be all right / Rockabye..." edition

Overheard in a high-school classroom somewhere in Dumas:

"Stop calling me a dumb blonde; Hillary Clinton's blonde, and she's smart!"

"Who are you voting for?"

"I'm voting for Barack Obama!"

(Ed. note: Seriously. This is the nearly the first time I've ever heard any eighteen-year-old high school senior say they were going to vote, and nearly the first time any of the Dumasians have said anything positive about a Democrat. I'm going to close my eyes for a minute and pretend that things really are changing.)
