I for one will be *extremely* glad when Tuesday has come and gone, so that all these small-minded people working themselves up into a rage over who should be President and why Candidate X is better than Candidate Y and if you can't see that you're a damn communist/pot smoking hippie/fascist etc. etc. I can say this with the bitterness and acerbic attitude that only a former Political Science major can heft. Am I voting for Dole? No. Am I voting for Clinton? No. Am I voting? Yes. Libertarian. Am I going to shove it down your throat? No, no, no. I mean, I'm not idealistic -- I realize that the Libertarian party has absolutely no chance at actually winning this election, yet I must vote for the candidate who fits my views the most. Otherwise why democracy? Speaking as someone relatively objective (e.g., disliking both major party candidates equally), I have to say that the Dole camp has probably disgusted me the most. Was watching C-Span the other day, a Republican rally, and all they could talk about was "character". Cripes, folks... if you're concentrating so much on something like that, you're definitely going to lose. Not to mention all the College Republicans' (at least, I assume that's who is responsible -- they left no attribution) chalk propaganda left all around campus, the most particularly noticeable one saying "Dole and Kemp -- Not Lies and Hemp". Real clever, guys. - jf(a)
