The discussion took an odd turn but UT nailed what I was trying to get folks to acknowlege. Both the entrenched parties think they own the system and the votes. It is pretty much true but shouldn't be. When you oppose open democractic elections don't try to sell it as a virtue, even if (you think) your guy wears the white hat.
NPR threw the Libertarians a bone today with an exerpt from a Badnarik speech. You'd almost expect them to pump up Mike for the same reason the GOP is pimping Nader, but bread butter ya know?
