Slog - Comments on The Bradley Effect: The Quiz! http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/10/the_bradley_effect_the_quiz A fifth option, proposed by Slog tipper John: "The sudden erection John McCain gets whenever he sees a man in uniform; first noticed by McCain when he was a teenager watching old newsreels of General Omar Bradley in World War 2."...

Sorry, that was my first guess.

I see the guy from #1 all the time at our local coffee shop --- sometimes his wife is there, too. (I'm kind of partial to her, but whatevs.)

And now that I think about it, if I order my drink after Mr Whitford (at our local Peets) I have a 50/50 chance of a glorious hot beverage, or a ruinous yukky drink that I didn't mean to order anyhow.

Monster What about the Milton-Bradley effect? That's when you realize that democracy is all a game, and the game is rigged, baby, rigged!

Doesn't the name Bradley County, Tennessee just conjure up visions of old, white dudes in coveralls, chewin tobacy, checkin on their sheep to make sure they are, um.....
