[ Fair enough.

Of course, the electoral college effectively cancels out your vote too, since you decided to live in a place which is heavily oriented to one side. I've been depressed about the low voter turnout numbers in the past (in the vicinity of 50%) but i've come to realize that a huge portion of that number isn't based purely on laziness. I still think everyone should vote, but i completely understand how a democrat in NY or CA could say, "eh, fuck it." Again, i don't encourage that, but i do understand it.

Anyway, we're off topic now. So what's the tally, 1 month old issue on the left and ...? -k]
