A serious question, leave your rhetoric at the door, please.

Did you get to vote for whom you wanted today?

Not 'did you get to vote' or 'did you get to put the mark on the ballot where you decided to and no one tossed it in the trash'...

Did YOU get to vote for WHOM YOU WANTED?

Not 'for whom you wanted from the two choices handed to you'.



Or did you, like I, come home feeling like you needed to take a shower because your vote really *didn't* count, since your opinion wasn't allowed to be voiced when it matters? (The primaries are only an artificial construct of our two-party system, and serve only to limit voter choice.)

Did you get to vote for WHOM YOU WANTED... or did you have to settle for lesser of two evils?

I don't care who you actually voted for, that's your business and no one else's. A simple yes or no will suffice.

ironically...

"He claims that he is personally anti-abortion, but doesn't believe it is appropriate to use his authority to legislate his personal morals."

Is often how *I* feel about abortion, and how mnay pro-choice women I know feel. That they are personally of the belief that they wouldn't choose abortion and but know they don't have the right to force their choices upon others. It's beliefs like this from Kerry that really made me go from mildly liking him to really admiring him.

Libertarian position on abortion...

The libertarians used to have the most sensible one liner I've ever seen on abortion (they may still hold this position, I've not checked):

"Abortion should be safe, legal, and rare."
