Campaign Killer...
This morning's Huff Post breaks a story that has had me chuckling early on....apparently Nixon once claimed Fred Thompon was dumb as hell. No kidding.
Yes, Nixon was an immoral shit, but he wasn't stupid. Which leads one to the conclusion that it must be very difficult to impeach a dumb and immoral president.
This election maybe we should just vote out anyone in Washington who has been in their position for more than four years. Cleaning house and starting over from scratch makes more sense than letting the rot spread via the career politicians who are easy prey for shrill lobbyists who find it easier to buy there vote the longer they stay in DC.
This election, think about what you can and should do rather than simply show up and punch a chad for the same old party.

if i were you [or if you were me] i'd call for a total abstinence from the vote until suitable candidates with viable solutions stepped forward. to hell with the party system. put a cap on all campaign spending and level the playing field. those with solutions that any kind of sense win. all others go home.
of course this would lead to near total anarchy. but - you know me - i'm a left-leaning utopianist. what can i say.
