The TelePromTer-readers and out-of-touch-hate-mongers of the mainstream media thought that they were being super-cool by discussing/bitching about the presidential candidate debates that were posted on YouTube. So since that new, interesting, and youth-vote promoting aspect of the next election has been talked to death by the talking-heads, I have found these candidate related webpages to occupy me during my early in the ante meridian down-time: At SuperBook.com, you can go to their "Exotic Lines"...

Okay, we all remember what happened in Florida in 2000, and it didn't make our voting process look very solid. A lot of people came away with the impression that their votes aren't counted properly, if at all, and that none of it matters anyway because no election will ever come down to a margin of just one vote, and if it's anywhere within a few thousand, it's just going to get decided by the Supreme Court anyway, and we all know how they're going to vote. And you know what? That sucks. It sucks that our elections can't be perfect, and it sucks that some people are losing faith in democracy, and it totally sucks that the Electoral College makes some people's vote count more than others'. But voting is still important, because taking our country's freedoms for granted is the ultimate in arrogance and entitlement.
