7-11 is Running the Coffee Cup Poll Again

by Marye on October 9th, 2008

For the third election year 7-11 is running thier unofficial Coffee Cup poll.  In past elections the poll has been pretty much spot on, interestingly enough.  The way it works, if you haven’t done it, is this-

When people come in for their 7-11 coffee they can pick a red or blue cup, signifying their choice of candidate.  Red for Republican, blue for Democrat..or they can choose a neutral cup if they are undecided.

So far it is Obama 58% McCain 42%.

Now, why is it when I hear stories like this that I get the sudden urge to furtively replace the coffee cups with psychedellic red and blue tie dye cups?

    I’d go for a tie dyed cup. I certainly do not want to be accosted over my political views while having coffee.
    Coffee drinking is meant to be a moment when I sit, rest, and plan my next move. It is not for political debate!

    The Mccain coffee tastes old, stale and bitter.

    That is interesting Reggie, I found the 7-11 Obama to be green, rather immature, with a rich,promising aroma that was was weak in the cup.
