Anyone But Bush???
With a world of candidates, it will be hard to narrow the field. It would be a shame if Bush got, say, 49.1 percent of the vote but still won because Massachusetts gave its electoral votes to a box of paper clips, California voted for a '63 Corvette and New York went to George Steinbrenner. Regardless of how strongly we'd prefer anyone or anything else, we have to decide. Voting for anyone is how we got in this mess.

1. We don't need to decide today though
We have LOTS and LOTS of time to sort things out. Remember, right now, DU and FR are really the only ones paying much attention.

2. That's true
I go on art related message boards, and there were people who didn't know who Dean and Clark were! I was surprised.

3. Ummm . . . .
You guys are missing the point . . . The article is pure satire. Saying 60 some odd percent would prefer a box of paper clips over Bush. Give it a read, funny as all of Florida.
