My only pre-election political rant

October 27, 2004 on 10:06 am | In Current Affairs |

I am so dreading the next 4 weeks.  Elections are just 6 days away, but I am afraid that the results are likely to not be known for weeks thereafter.  With all of the reports of voter intimidation and counties where more people are registered to vote than live in the county, my gut tells me that this is going to a NIGHTMARE.  I’m afraid that the loser (and his party) is going drag all of us through HELL.  Reports of both sides having “teams of lawyers” already on the ground in Florida and elsewhere ready to challenge the election is enough to already make me twitch funny.

What have we come to?  Where has the civility and honesty gone?  Where will this all lead?  Is the beginning of the end?

Note to the candidates:  Which ever of you wins, please do us a big favor and crack down, to the fullest extend of the law on anyone involved in voter fraud, vote manipulation, disenfranchisement, etc.  I fully expect heads to roll.  This has got to stop.  Someone needs to take a stand or we are going to devolve into some third world country. 

Otherwise, I am going to move to …… crap, there isn’t a better place to live.  ARGH!!!!!
