AND THEY CAN LEGALLY VOTE IN FLORIDA
Key Quote: Blowing incense over a sacred llama fetus perched on a bed of coca leaves next to posters of the leading candidates, the shamans shook rattles, chanted "up, Obama, up!" and threw flowers at their images.
(Thanks to Jeff Meyerson, who notes that Sacred Llama Fetus would be a good name for a rock band)

Well thank god for that, cause otherwise Obama might have lost!

Heh! That's nothing. The Hialeah Santeros support McCain. The chickens...not so much.

2 of the 11 shamans forsee McCain winning. If he doesn't, do those two get sacrificed to the gods as false prophets?

"Mary Gomez, a healer from the city of Chiclayo..."
Obama was a Community Organizer from there. But he spells it differently.

Key quote looks like one of my son's homework assignments, where he tries to cram all his vocabulary words into one sentence.
