Hey there Gomerella,

I not only vote, I'm an election judge too. I am speaking from first hand
experience.

For many hours we often sit and wait with nothing to do because the average
number of registered voters who actually vote is only around thirty percent
on a good day, even less for the primaries and non-presidential elections.
By far the majority who DO vote are senior citizens. Never seen teenages or
"young adults" (18-21) vote.

What the Japanese and Europeans say is absolutely true: "Americans ARE lazy
and stoopid!!!"

Thats how we have gotten into this mess with having no competent leadership.
It was a long time in coming.

I don't know where you are a poll worker, but national statistics from
the census bureau reported 60 percent of eligible voters voted in 1996;
58 percent in 2000. They didn't yet have 2004 figures but I seem to
recall from the news coverage (that may not be credible) that it was
slightly higher than in prior years.

Of course, one must also consider that only about 70 percent of us
bother to register, and that probably includes a sizeable stable of the
deceased who show up on election day.

Well, most Amerikanskys don't even vote at all.

So what, I did.

If you vote you have a right to and should criticize. If you don't vote,
don't bitch.



Like it or not, we are all stuck with this doofus as president even if he
doesn't measure up as your personal savior.

I don't look to the president to be a personal savior. I think that's the
problem with the person I responded to and many republicans. They think
Bush is their personal savior and this thing is a game for them to win. It

Evidently we are still lacking in them because things aren't going

in Texas. I guess you really aren't interested in anything that makes
your
president or his party look incompetant, corrupt, or facile.

What makes him my president any more than yours?

You got upset when someone criticized him.

I didn't vote for him. He's an embarassment and I don't consider him my
president.
