Huh? McCain And The Alien Vote?

At a rally in Roswell, New Mexico, the Republican presidential candidate worked some local color into his speech.

“I’ve been to Roswell before and I know of the alien landing, and I am pleased to announce that I have received the alien endorsement.” UFO buffs know the city as the site of a supposed 1947 crash by an alien craft, and several in the crowd waved alien dolls plastered with McCain stickers.

But there’s more to this story than just a routine bit of pandering. The Weekly World News also reports that McCain has wrapped up the alien vote.
