McCain or Obama?

I wore a campaign pin for the candidates I prefer to this morning’s sales meeting,.  My broker saw it and asked me, “Do you think that’s a very good idea?” I told him I would only be wearing it for the meeting, but out in the field, I’d remove it.  He said, “Good.  After all, you want to sell houses to the other side, too.” When I repeated this to another agent, the other agent retorted, “No, we don’t!”

I don’t think how I’m going to vote in November affects my job performance as an agent.  But, if a client of mine has their house up for sale, I will advise them to remove any yard signs or other election paraphernalia they may have lying around the house because we don’t want any potential buyers to have a negative emotional reaction if they happen to disagree.

I laughed when I was out walking the dog tonight – I saw this little war going on the south slope of someone’s lawn…

I wonder who will be gloating and who will be sad on November 5th in that house?
