Depends on what for. Depends on where. Depends on when.

But probably not. [Wink]

I'll vote for you!

Fallow, I imagine you as some cool, geeky, scientist living on the East Coast somewhere. That's voting material if I ever saw it!

fallow,

Here in Chicago, the question is not whether to vote for you or not, but how many ballots to cast. A related question involves figuring out how many dead people we can get to cast a ballot for you.

In a related note, in 1972 President Nixon ran a campaign that stressed not listening to the noisy protestors, but vote for Nixon, since he represents "The Silent Majority"

That was quite a term--"The Silent Majority"

It came from Shakespeare.

Of course, Shakespeare was refering to the DEAD!

Basically, Nixon was saying "I'm number 1 with people who don't breathe anymore."

Which is ironic since all the dead people voted for Kennedy anyways.

I'd vote for Fallow. I mean, I've got a super secret thread with him and all. I gave my loyalties over to the dark side a long time ago.

True, Hobbes. But here in Illinois, neither party has a lock on chicanery.

In the southern part of the state, they were stuffing ballots for Nixon.

The theory is that it all kind of evened out in the end - and was the real reason Nixon didn't demand an investigation of the Illinois ballots. It could have gone either way and would have shown that both parties were turning out the living and the dead for their respective candidates. [Smile]

*is never bored reading about Illinois politics*
