Could we all donate money to do a commercial on Gannongate?
How much would it cost to put one out that makes 75% of America aware of this and how important it is? I am talking a commercial that runs nationally for at least a week. Anyone have any ideas? Could ACT run one? Could we set up a place to donate to ACT just for that?

2. We should market "nekkid-ware"
that is to say, mugs, mousepads bumerstickers etc with Gannon's nekkid image and then we should take the money and fund a paper ballot voting company.
Then we lobby-bully the local councils to install those machines and if we just so happen to have an Enron-blackout on election day, well then we have ourselves a paper trail.

3. That's actually a great idea.
We need to start planting the seeds now to let the people know what they voted for. My guess is they wouldn't vote for it again in 06 or 08.

6. I'd rather just do Plamegate.
I dunno, the whole Jeff Gannon incident, as incredibly characteristic and unbelievably irritating as it is, is really not that important to me.

Now the whole Valerie Plame/Joseph Wilson deal, that, my friend, is hot stuff. I bet Karl Rove (who many say is actually a pedophile) blew his top on that one, and it'd be nice to cook that into a full-blown scandal that will once again make it clear how untrustworthy these people are.
