I saw this article awhile back and made me stop and think about the upcoming election……it is true….we hate Congress but most will be re-elected…..where is the logic in that? What is it that Einstein had to say about insanity?
If you cannot see the stupidity in this then you are the perfect person to sign up for the new Palin Channel………

UGH.. yes. The two-party trap in action.
I mentioned this before and will keep repeating it periodically, hope you don’t mind. One way to alleviate the two-party trap, and allow incremental improvements instead of an all-or-nothing deal, is a tweak to the voting procedure used in many European Democracies. Called “Instant Runoff Voting”. Please read…

I mind not…. and I agree with you completely…there are many aspects of the European system that I like a lot….the money, the lying thing and the short election cycle….it would improve this system a lot.
