I realize that the idea behind the electoral college was to make the candidates accessible to voters in a way that they cannot do in the general election. Maybe that is a valid point, but we're living in a new age now and I seriously doubt that people are picking candidates based on who shows up to what pig pickin' anymore.

If you live in Hawaii, Idaho, or Utah then maybe your vote will mean something.

If you live in California, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, or Vermont then maybe your vote will mean something, but it will probably just be a formality.

If you live in Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Kansas, Illinois, Wyoming, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Indiana, North Carolina, West Virginia, Arkansas, Kentucky, or Oregon then no one gives a rat's ass what your vote is.

If you live in Alabama, Montana, or New Jersey then your primary is in June and probably won't even get covered by the press. We'll be deeply mired in mud slinging by then and no one will even notice.

My point here is, this is how I feel and right now there are two "I Voted" stickers on my white board. I can only imagine how people who aren't into it feel.

GO TEAM in '04 – I guess.
