Since we’re leaving aside all good electronic musical taste and each giving our soap box rants about who shouldn’t be “voted” into office.

McCan’t and Obama Bin Laden are just two different kinds of LAME.
Both kill babies and promote evil.
I’m voting for Ron Paul.
Yes, I know that the Feds won’t count my vote or care.

“When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.” BFranklin

I look forward to the end, and what happens with our freedom as soon as Obama Bin Laden takes office.

Perhaps there are some non-musical types that like John McCain,
but any real self-respecting musician has a heart, and if you have a heart and care about your fellow human then it would be most obvious that we have survived the Worst President Ever. W. is the reason our economy is in the gutter, W. is the reason that the former “#1″ nation has so many enemies, and his hate-filled rhetoric does nothing but reinforce an image that most Americans do not deserve, & John McCain is not capable of anything other than extending the damage.
We are not a bunch of intolerant ethnocentric misogynists, we are not the bourgeoisie, we are not the Roman Centurions. We are the greatest nation on the planet, we invented rock and roll, we invented the airplane, we refined the automobile, and Bob Moog was one of us.
We are absolutely capable of letting go of our grandparents obsolete
politics and embracing progress, we will once again lead the world
through example instead of misguided threats. I grew up in Arizona
so I know what kind of scum John McCain is, but apart from voting
‘against’ McCain, I am voting ‘for’ Obama, & I am also voting ‘for’
Joe Biden, they are both great men & deserve our vote. I love this
country, and I am disgusted and ashamed with the GOP. I use to be
‘middle of the road’, but George W. has made me into a democrat.

mibrilane – you’re right, there are probably some electronic musicians supporting McCain – but they seem to be hiding out better than Osama Bin Laden.

Aren’t there any that are willing to show their support?

I made a song called vote john McCain with an acid line. It was for fun and too about fifteen minutes. I’ll post a link later.

ariannaK has it right – electronic music culture is somewhat at odds with traditional conservative values. Not that there aren’t any conservative electronic musicians, but as is true with many artistic pursuits their percentage of the total artistic population is relatively small.

Saw this on Twitter and had to comment –

The fact that electronic musicians don’t support McCain probably says more about electronic music than it does about McCain.

Ravers are into things like drugs and being promiscuous. A lot of dance music is basically about hedonism.

McCain supports traditional Republican values and those don’t jive with a lot of what dance music is about. So, I’m not surprised if there aren’t any electronic musicians supporting McCain – they’re advocating lifestyles that McCain and other Republicans don’t believe in.

McCain has a better taste in music then Barack Obama, though.
