Ick, that Vote Smart site is a mess. Couldn't figure out which side was up. It's like they're trying to be too many things.

I tried votesmart and it looks like I have the most in common with Goode...but there's no way he's getting elected. I can't get behind either main platform, so how can I vote? Funny how it's gotten to the point where politics is a shouting match, rather than a way for different people to reach agreements.

I'm distressed by the number of Americans who ARE voting. Have you taken a look at the average citizen lately? I, at least, have the dignity to say that I am not informed enough to judge who can best lead our country.

Well I prefer it to a dictatorship, thank you very much. :) Well at least I think I do, I've not lived under a dictator yet.

Dictatorship works really well as long as you can find the right guy. The problem is finding the right guy.
