Ha! Looks like you need a course in diplomacy. Any "malcontent, misfit or militant" that reads that statement is going to say, "Fine, you don't need my vote, then". Either we do some things to keep these people happy, people who are law-abiding, tax-paying citizens, BTW, or we ignore them and become a minority party- again. Right now, Rove and Co. are ignoring them, and they will most likely make only empty promises to try to keep them on the farm.
I personally will wear one industrial-sized clothes pin on my nose as I make my vote for W in November, and will then swear off ever voting for anyone from that family ever again. Fool me once...
Right! Diplomacy. LOL If you're planning on pinning your nose closed and voting for Bush-Cheney in November, you've made a wise decision. Under the right set of circumstances, being a political "malcontent, misfit or militant" isn't necessarily a bad thing. In 2000 it was. Especially when those personal positions were combined with factions of fringe extremism and reactionary absolutism. A deadly combination indeed.
