Nu2manners, a little something to think about, If the dems were in power do you think they wouldn't bring in these machines after the last election???? After all, it's Al Gore's internet that the machines would be compromised from!! to answer your question,Yes you missed something. So, in your words, "UH HELLO?" I personally don't care about where your party lines are drawn. Fact of the matter is this new system was coming sooner or later, because of FLA, it's sooner. Damn, I wish Steven Hawkings would run for president.

Slack,
As far as the new machines, I think that is something that is done at the state level. Aren't Jeb and Kate still in office? Fla. was certainly the worst example of election irregularities in 2000, but not every state is bringing in computerized ballots and touch screens and such. I don't know, I'm still very suspicious of these machines and who is buying them and who they are buying them from. I don't know what Dems would do in Fla, if it were up to them at this point. Maybe they would do the same thing. But they're not, and they didn't so.....but you make a valid point.
Nu2synapsis, Read YOUR post again, you tell me who it looks like your addressing in the 1st paragragh, ya friggun hippie! I see you were the one that TOOK the brown acid!! As for the new voting boxes, again you should pick up this months PM. Looks like they're all going that way relatively soon.

"Kevin B, I got the distinct impression that, while you may not particularly like Kerry, you were opposed to Bush? Why would you look forward to more election difficulties in FloriDUH, when they will probably favor Bush and work against Kerry, if you are inclined to favor Kerry? Did I miss something?"
Try again!! You're right, the first paragraph was addressed to you, the second however started with "Kevin B"...
I can understand where you misread, I'm just messin' with you!!
(And I never took brown acid, is it good? I always liked the purple the best :p .)
Jim, I was being facetious, I don't actually want to see crying,disenchanted seniors at the polls, I've seen enough of that on T.V., with them dying in line for vacines and Oprah this past week. For the record I am a big fan of paper, I cast my vote today for John Kerry on it. A case for Kerry, this article summed up how I feel for the most part. web page
