or Ralph Nader, or Katherine Harris, or Skull and Bones (remember the Monty Python bit about the Mason architect?)

In some ways voting for me is like getting fitted for glasses: "is this one or (new lens) this one better" -

it's hard to tell if either one is better. 

I'm not sure if my previous choices that led to this one were correct, 

I'm not sure my eyes will operate the same way outside the fitting room, 

I'd rather not have to wear corrective lenses at all;

but by and large the process isn't terrible and a heck of a lot better than walking into trees & such


If I couldn't trust my doctor to use my choices in writing the prescription, it would be even more like voting...
