POLL: SOCCER MOMS FEEL TAKEN FOR GRANTED BY NASCAR DADS

NASCAR Dads Accuse Soccer Moms of ‘Nagging’

According to a survey of two key constituencies in the 2004 presidential race, soccer moms feel that they are being “taken for granted” by NASCAR dads, while NASCAR dads wish that soccer moms would “stop their nagging already.”

The poll, conducted by the Crandall Public Opinion Institute at the University of Minnesota, shows that seventy percent of soccer moms agree with the statement, “These NASCAR dads are not the NASCAR dads we married.”

Additionally, sixty-three percent of the soccer moms feel that NASCAR dads are spending “too much time” being courted by presidential candidates and “not enough time” performing such basic household tasks as carpooling, taking out the garbage, and raking leaves.

For their part, eighty-two percent of NASCAR dads surveyed in the poll said they had had “just about enough” of the soccer moms’ complaining.

Even more tellingly, one hundred percent agreed with the statement, “I would rather go to a NASCAR race then sit around listening to this crap.”

Ominously, an equal percentage of soccer moms agreed with the statement, “Fine, but don’t expect me to be here when you get back.”

Dr. David Givens, who conducted the survey for the University of California, said that soccer moms may once again mobilize as a political force in 2004, but added, “There’s an equal chance that they may just go home to their mothers.”

Warning that “hell hath no fury like a soccer mom scorned,” Dr. Givens said that the soccer moms’ anger at the NASCAR dads may wind up benefiting two other key constituencies, handsome pool men and cable installers.
