I am not what you would call a political junkie. I am what you would call an average, ordinary citizen who just so happens to read a lot of political stories … well because I am paid to do so.

But after more than a year and a half of reading about “Obama this” and “Clinton that” and “Insert-random-candidate’s-name-here such and such,” I can honestly say I am over it. I am so burned out on “Decision 2008” that even the coverage on “The Daily Show” isn’t funny anymore.

But of course, I will continue to read the “this” and “that” stories because it’s my job.

2006 was the year of Doggles.

2007 was the year of doggie beer.

Political Party Pets and My Dog Votes have banded together to ensure that 2008 is the year of politically active pets.

Georgia’s presidential primary election is only a few weeks away. If you still haven’t made up your mind on who to support, ask yourself, who would your pet vote for?

Political Party Pets asks people to classify their pets as Repuppycans, Doggie Democrats, Republikittens or Democats and offers bowls, t-shirts and bandannas that proudly display your pet’s political affiliation. Even though the logos are super cute, I can’t imagine paying $10 to $14 dollars for bandannas that my dogs will destroy within days.
