In this cute, albeit at times infuriating, segment from Real Time with Bill Maher, Maher sits down with a small group of elderly women and tries to pick their brains to determine how they will vote and why older voters seem to always turn out more consistently. "Because we don't have that much to do," replies one lady. Maher talks about the implications of a first black or first female president. He even manages to provoke an almost testy exchange about Giuliani and 9/11. Check out the video to your right for more.

Digg!
