They make up less than 7% of the electorate, and there's no common theme that appeals to them. They vote for the guy they like best, many times basing their vote on nothing more than charisma. Of course. How do you think a guy like Clinton could actually win.... Clinton is a prime example of someone who is long on charisma, and short on character. Dave |

Dave Once again, your dependence on kindergarten-level news is obvious. After BOTH Clinton's and Bush's successful elections, NPR sent a reporter wandering around a couple of college campuses, asking students why they voted the way they did. Regarding both candidates, many young women said they voted for the winner because "he was cute", or they liked the way his eyebrows wrinkled when making an important point in a speech. NOYB was making a generic statement. |

Thank you for making my point for me. NOYB was making a generic statement. Which I applied to a specific individual, as a testiment to the validity of the point. Dave |

You are wrong in assuming that your leader, Nookular Boy, didn't benefit mightily from the idiot vote, just the same as any other president.

Dave And I supplied you with information indicating that there will always be numbskulls who vote this way, regardless of the candidate. Your leader ALSO got votes from people like that. |

The "idiot vote" has determined 2 of the last three Presidential elections.
Perot pulled the idiots from Bush 41 in 2000. Nader pulled the idiots from Gore in 2000. That's why a third party candidate is important...he/she bleeds off most of the idiots, thus leaving a semi-intelligent electorate to choose the best candidate. Of course, not much can be done to account for the not-so-bright "semi-intelligent" voters that vote for someone because "they're sexy" or "charismatic". The idiot vote is precisely the reason Schwarznegger will win California (*if* the vote proceeds). He'll get the Republicans and the idiot swing voters. Bustamante will only get the Democrats. Of course, Larry Flynt and the porno actress will pull some of the idiots from Schwarznegger...which may be precisely why they are running. "Doug Kanter" wrote in message ...
