"I just LOVE it when Terrrrraeyzzzzza is out on the stump for the Demodogs."

>>>I thought that said "Demagogues" at first.


Completely intentional.

"Who cares? One state does not make a state." I guess she meant to say one state does not make a whole election, but who knows.

Perhaps she's referring to the various states of being simultaneously (and apparently regularly) experienced by her as she contemplates the mystic memories of ancient battlefields that spread to tombstones on the outer edges of the universe.

On the other hand, one state may make two states, since the Kerry Kampaign keeps telling us there are "two Americas"

We need to find a brave reporter to get her to clarify what she meant. We need another "shove it" soundbite.

Freepers in Colorado need to tell their friends to vote against the unconstitutional Amendment 36 that will be on the ballot. It would change the allocation of Electoral College votes from winner-take-all to proportional. The campaign is being funded by weathy interests in California. I wonder why they don't propose the same type of amendment to be passed by a state-wide referendum in California?

It is unconstitutional, because it is a referendum. The constitution very specifically says that the state legislatures, and only the state legislatures have the authority to determine the method by which electors are chosen! The Colorado legislature very specifically rejected such a system.

As long as large states like California, New York and Texas do not change from a winner take all system, it is not in the interest of small states like Colorado to do so.

I also don't want to forgot to mention that it also violates the federal election code. The method by which the electors is selected must be in place before (as I recall at least six days prior to) the date the electors are chosen which is election day. Even if the a referendum were a valid mechanism of determining the method of allocating electors, this referendum is too late to affect the 2004 election. This referendum should be fought in court and removed from the ballot.

Article II.

Section 1
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice-President chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
