An Elsiethon starts as soon as Elsie wakes up in the morning and hits her computer..
probably even before her first cup of coffee..
:)
Like Obama is so much of an improvement...
NO one can FORCE me to choose the lesser of two evils.
A refusal to choose, is itself a choice.
you are right; of course.
And I CHOOSE to CHOOSE neither.
