This year's election really helps me to identify with
Aron Ralston, the dude who had to amputate his own arm to save his life. I feel like I can either hack my arm off with a pocket knife and cut my losses (Kerry), or lay on the canyon floor in misery and despair until I eventually die of exposure (Bush). Sure, nobody actually
wants to amputate their own arm, but when you look at the only viable alternative, it suddenly doesn't look so bad...
