People are disenfranchised every election, you just don't know about it.

If there's a close race, then people look at the issues more closely and it's gets national press.

But considering this was a blowout, there isn't the national focus. It doesn't mean that local districts aren't working on local issues.

Blowout? There were 3 or 4 Senate races alone that were razor thin. But the Dems won, so they looked the other way and didnt play the disinfranchised card.

If they truly cared about people not being disinfranchised, they would go after anyone who believed had a case. But they dont, they only make a big stink when they get thier asses kicked. If they win, they turn the other cheek and look away.

hypocrytes? I think so.

You guys just can't deal with the fact that the Dems fronted candidates the people liked better than the rubber stampers.

When you fall, you fall hard.

We lost. Its over. We've moved on. Turn the tables on the winning partys and we'd still be having recount after recount. And Al Sharpton and Jessee Jackson would be doing thier usual thing. But you guys win, and the elections are perfect!

But you guys just dont see what a bunch of hypocrytes you are!

Its so freakin funny!!
