Mid-terms blog of blogs

California Conservative says that the Democrats' pouring resources into races they were once considered unlikely to win is not a sign the tide is shifting in their favour - it is an indication "they wouldn't know a safe seat from a vulnerable one if their life depended on it".
But Five Before Chaos is so delighted at the scandals wracking the Republican party, he wants to postpone the election for a week "so we can have a few more gifts - pleeeeze".
Finally, Blacknell laments that the entire US political system is broken: "Maybe it's just because we, as a society, don't give a damn about democracy anymore."

The Entire Political System in the USA is broken because of the Republicans and Democrats.
Many people are either turned off, or vote because they have to. Those who can vote Green and Libertarian will do so. There is also a movement for a monarchy in America.
Last but not least, 4-Nov-2006, Vermont Commons will be sponsoring the first Seccession Symposium in Vermont to discuss Independence for Vermont by the Movement Second Vermont Republic.

Which is all well and good, but the Greens and Libertarians sure as hell aren't going to fix it. And secession? Ha.
It either gets fixed through public pressure on the Democratic and Republican parties or the place goes to hell.

HERE IN FLORI-DUH, THE COMPUTERIZED VOTING MACHINES ARE "PREDICTING" A HUGE REPUBLICAN LANDSLIDE.
APPARENTLY... THERE IS NO NEED TO VOTE! THE REPUBLICANS HAVE WON ANOTHER MANDATE WITH DESTINY. I SUSPECT THAT THIS MEANS THE U.S. WILL SOON START BOMBING IRAN IN THE NAME OF "OUR LORD."
