Katy,

Just keep dreaming. In reality you get to vote for ONE ELECTOR in YOUR
STATE.
Didn't Bush getting elected teach you anything about Presidential
election? The popular Vote means NOTHING!!

Our government is a REPUBLIC!! It isn't a Democracy as you apparently
believe. A REPUBLIC! Learn about your government. It was formed as a
REPUBLIC which is different than a Democracy. It is a democratic Republic but a REPUBLIC it is! You should learn
the
difference.

Excuse me...we were talking about choosing cadidates, not the actual electoral process..
and I am well aware that we are a republic and not a democracy and how the electoral process works...you are diverting
from the original discussion of choosing cadidates to run...and BTW, your voting for an electoral vote IS voting for
an individual....so get back on topic..which is choosing candidates to run...and don't take that tone with me...


Katy is correct. The topic was the primaries but Thom made the unlikely leap to the
presidential election and the electoral college. But, we must not forget the real issue
in the upcoming primaries and that is women like Katy are going to be the key to whom
the candidates are because women represent the swing vote. I'm Ted Bell and I
know all about swinging! I'm just that kind of a loveable guy. Come to Ted's of
Beverly Hills for a steak that's a mouth-watering delight.

I'm Ted Bell!
