WAIT! Lemme get this straight.

[Guaranteed]

So, now, a vote for Dean is a vote for Kerry, since Edwards is the only viable candidate running against Kerry. If I don't vote for Edwards, I'm effectively voting for the frontrunner: Kerry. So in voting for Dean, I'm voting for Kerry!

AND, since I'm voting for Kerry, I'm actually voting AGAINST Bush!! A vote for Kerry is a vote AGAINST another four years of the BFEE! We ALL know that!

Thank you, DU. I feel entirely vindicated by this beautiful anti-anti-voting logic that you have explained unto me, and I feel that I've finally come to love the process that is the Democratic primary. It all makes sense to me now, and I will hold fast in faith to the idea that my vote for Howard Dean in the primaries is, in REALITY, a vote against Bush in the GE!

Praise the Lord, for I have seen the light! O8)

1. WHAT! Bush is running in our primaries?

Oh, shit, who let this happen? Who let him in? That bastard Karl Rove!

Damn, I knew I shouldn't have taken a few days off.

2. Yeah, and since Gore ran in the 2000 election,

if you voted for him then, that means you get TWO votes against Bush now, one in voting for Gore, and one in voting for Kerry! We've got double the chance to win now! The more you vote against Bush, the better chance we have of winning!

4. But. . .but. .

I crossed the international date line before I cast my ballot, thereby making it yesterday's ballot but I'm not in the military so it doesn't count, right?

5. That's what the electability argument boils down to. nt
