Would You Vote for a Corvette Owner?

Nothing says Future President like Corvette-owner.  In a story today we learn about the first cars of the 2008 Presidential Candidates.  Turns out, John McCain’s first car was a 1958 Corvette!  If that doesn’t give him an advantage I don’t know what does.

Here’s a quick list of the candidates first cars, and current cars in parenthasis.

• John McCain:  Chevy Corvette  (Now:  Cadillac CTS)
• Hillary Clinton:  Oldsmobile Cutlass  (Now:  Ford Hybrid)
• John Edwards:  Plymouth Duster  (Now:  Ford Escape)
• Barack Obama:  Ford Granada  (Now:  Chrysler 300C)
• Bill Richardson:  Ford Mustang  (Now:  Jeep Wrangler)
• Rudy Giuliani:  Used Dodge  (Now:  Doesn’t drive…)
• Mike Huckabee:  Mercury Montego  (Now:  Chevy Tahoe)
• Mitt Romney:  Rambler Classic  (Now:  Ford Mustang)

Other candidates unknown, but for now, you have to admit the ball is in John McCain’s court!
