I don't want a president who does only what they think is right, all others be damned. That is what we have now with Bush. I want a president who is pragmatic, who can fight for what they believe in while making realistic compromises, and someone who can see nuances to situations and not see the world through binary goggles. Sure the electoral college is flawed, and people are grossly misinformed. I read today that 3/4 of Bush supporters believe that Sadam Hussein had stockpiles of WMDs and that he was responsible for planning and orchestrating the plane hijackings on 9/11. If Bush wins, and I am so afraid he will, I'll look into a lobotomy. Vote for Nader in 08 when it's Arnold vs. Hillary.

I still have no regrets about voting for Clinton in '92. My grandfather soon regretted his vote for Nixon. Cast a vote that you can live with. I still have no regrets about voting for Clinton in ‘92.
