Seems by their claw marks here that

Both parties in 2008, as my Green Party pal pointed out, must be challenged. And I don't think an all-out fifty state campaign is the best approach to holding them accountable. As a minority, we may not be able to beat the Republicans, but we sure as hell have the ability to put tangible pressure of the Democrats. And that's why we ought to focus our efforts on two states only: Ohio and Florida....Me too. I say we hamstring those fuckin' donks -- make 'em hobble and trip over their hooves. Let's fuck 'em and fuck 'em good. Let's block off the hoofbeaten pathway to the trough of office. Let's bust up that smirky, head-nodding, hee-hawing, clopitty-clop "ain't this just grand" red-white-and-blue progress toward the great white palace off the Penn! Here's some slogan suggestions. Improvements welcome:The 2008 election is for the Democrats to lose. Let's spoil it.
- No more purple fingers for me!
- Purple finger nyet!
- Vote never again!
- March on occupied Washington
- Block the smurf voting stations!
- No more November line dancing!
- End the great American mockocracy!

Well, the beauty of living in OR is that nobody, deep down, gives a rat's ass what we do except as theater. Our primary is always too late, our returns are too late and we don't even have a pocket's worth of electoral votes. Plus, we vote by mail. Without the possible thrill of a political ten-car pileup, there's not all that much to get enthused about. Unless your pulse quickens at the thought of more Mexican workers' families being torn assunder by ICE, of course.
You can always count on the monkeys in the local papers and the yobs in local political chatrooms to drool over Edwards or whoever's trendy in the appropriate manner, but I bet deep down they don't believe that any of it means shit. Hell, I'd stake twenty bucks on the candidates themselves not believing it.
