Virtually, yes... so since we're talking on the internet, yes he's dead.

I suppose I should explain myself better. While it does matter to me that representative government is also so dead in this country that the electronic voting scandal doesn't piss anyone off, much less become an object of concern in the media, it eventually gets hard to be one of the only ones that care about stuff.

You gotta look at this from my point of view, though: The LP drew a whopping 400,000 votes for President in a record year for voter turnout. Hey, they only raised a million bucks, which made their campaign the most cost-effective Presidential run of the year...

Wow.

That's good, right?

The true Republican party, the only actual Party of the People or anti-war party, drew almost half a million votes in a time of poorly run and ill-conceived war and a more-than-ever rapidly expanding as well as oppressive government................

Good stuff.

At least all tose votes for someone else than Bush made a difference, right? I mean, at least now everybody understands that the shenanigans of the last four years won't be tolerated anymore. That's why everybody's all up in arms about the vagaries of quickly mandated e-voting, especially since we had four whole years to fix what half of America's been bitching about: that bass-ackwards voting systems can lead to stolen elections and whatnot...

It's good that we fixed it.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
