Like most Americans, when there’s an election on and I have to make a choice between two candidates, I don’t worry about unimportant things like the issues. There’s only one way to truly gauge someone’s qualifications and character for the highest office in the land: what kind of car does he/she drive?

And seeing as how it’s the Year of the Car anyway, it’s only right and fair to take a look at what the Obamas and McCains use to get around.

The Obamamobile: 2008 Ford Escape hybrid



The McCainmobile: 2004 Cadillac CTS



The Cindy McCain fleet:

2006 Lexus
2005 Volkswagen
2001 Honda sedan
2007 half-ton Ford pickup truck
1960 Willys Jeep
2008 Jeep Wrangler
2000 Lincoln
2001 GMC SUV
Three 2000 NEV Gem electric vehicles

DISCLAIMER: Photos are for reference only and were Googled in something like five minutes.

PRODUCTION NOTE: Cindy McCain’s name is on all of the vehicles above except for the one she actually drives: the Lexus (top left), which is actually a Budweiser company car.

Note also that the above mosaic doesn’t include the Toyota Prius that Meghan McCain drives, as John McCain has backtracked on who actually bought it.

Note also that the Ford Escape is shared by both Barack and Michelle Obama.

FUN FACT: John McCain is a friend of the common man. Because everyone knows working-class people have at least nine or ten cars scattered around the country. What, you think they’re going to drive one car between the seven or eight houses they own? That’s preposterous. Not only is it hell on the transmission, do you have any idea how much it costs to fill a tank these days?

Who’s gonna drive you home,
