At the polls, people overwhelmingly vote for the devil they know over the devil they don't --which is how people like Bush get re-elected.
The undecided, statistically vote for the last name they saw 'advertised'. In some areas, people try to vote strategically... ie. not for the candidate they want to win, but for the candidate they think can beat the one they don't want to win. Would the US vote in a female? a black? Hard to say. In my opinion, the likelihood is directly proportional to the alternative. > Do you really think that a statement like "If only we could ban people > that think like you from voting." isn't a personal attack? > > Millions of people vote purely on party, straight line ticket voting > regardless of the individuals they are voting for. How is that > different? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:206615 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
