Do you personally know any Republicans who were chomping at the bit to vote for John McAmnesty? It almost seems like he was handed the nomination rather than having earned it. ...but then, I am prone to hallucinations.

I debated for quite some time before posting this about whether I should add a [sic] in there. I decided it was just too pretentious, especially considering that the quote is copied directly from a comment on the immediately previous post. The whole inspiration for the follow up post was that very misspelling. This is the face of those who think voting matters. Thank God the system is a sham. If it was legit, people like "teresa bacon" would be choosing our leaders. baxtrice, my dear, I understand.
