Okay, that did it. Obama just lost my vote, although he has obviously decided that he can do without it in any case.
So I'm looking for a new candidate. Any serious suggestions, please? My vote won't make a difference anyway, here in Rhode Island, but I need to make a statement. Right now there's not a single candidate that I can stand. Nader, Barr, Clinton, McCain...none of them. I hope they all f--k off and die, along with every member of the Democratic leadership and party who has supported this atrocity of a bill.
I'm willing to write someone in, but ideally it should be someone who might get another few write-in votes too...enough so that someone, somewhere in the party hierarchy might actually hear that there were a few protest votes for "X". Any suggestions?
Please, no jokes. I've pretty much lost all hope for the future of this country right now, and I'm just not in the mood for levity.
