Yeah, yeah, we've all had it up to here with "disenfranchised voters," especially nonexistent ones. But this is just too funny to pass up. Just like a lib to look at the symptom of a problem rather than the cause of it for a solution. Here's the link to the article in the Orlando Sentinel: http://www.orlandosentinal.com/news/local/orl-literacy012901.story

"Disenfranchised Voter" is nothing more than politically correct speak for "pissed off voter"..... and to be honest, I think they have the right to feel that way.

BTW, I hate to see you throw in the Liberal jab Mr.Goodbytes. After all, had some of those folks known what to do, your boy MIGHT have gotten more votes in Florida and it wouldn't have been so close now would it? Course, maybe you just "assumed" that all of those Disenfranchised voters were going to vote democratic....

Bottom line, its confusing because its not standardized! Good, bad, or ugly, if we had a standard ballot.....the same in every city, county, and state, at least then people could be educated on how to do it. We could even run public service announcements inbetween candidate commercials (what a nice break that would be) at election time. That way, everyone would be shown how the ballot is setup ahead of time, and could then be reasonably expected to know what to do and how to do it.
