"And the vote for them anyway because you don't have any where else to go didn't work."

Precisely! can't tell you how many freepers bought into this. I spend a lot of time on the immigration threads and so many have come forward to post about how this was no big deal....sorry, but it was and is!

As I have posted before, we legislate from the ground up and the grass roots, and not the other way around. This is not a dictatorship!

Right.

After all their phone calls, letters and emails and faxes to their representatives, the voter has few remaining options:

a. vote the incumbent and get more of the same
b. vote the loyal opposition in and hope the choice isn't between bad and worse
c. vote some 3rd party because I'd disgusted with both major parties
d. Gone Fishing! [Can you hear me now?]

Many chose option d. If the GOP doesn't wake up and start listening, the GOP won't see itself in leadership position for decades.
