It's a race for the white house for, "[f]ourteen dogs, six cats, 14 fish, two turtles named Cuff and Link, three birds and a ferret..." No, these animals aren't running for presidency, but their owners are!
Most of the hopefuls have pets, while four do not. You know what that means! Animal lovers/pet owners: Don't vote Obama, Giuliani, Tancredo, or Dodd. Just kidding.
Among all the candidates, McCain is the most animal crazy of them all! Twenty-two to be exact. How on Earth does he keep so many pets is beyond me.
Anyway, I don't know why knowing which candidate has pets or not really matters. It's just one of those silly, random things I guess. Whats new?
Here's a list for all you curious ones out there:
DEMOCRATS
Delaware Sen. Joe Biden: A cat.
New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton: "Seamus, our Lab."
Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd: None because of family's allergies. Would like a dog.
Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards: Golden retriever and chocolate Lab.
Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich: Pound-rescues Harry the beagle-basset, Lucie the beagle and George the cocker spaniel.
Illinois Sen. Barack Obama: None.
