And there's an advantage to our only having one vote...we don't have to worry about the Republicans coming in here and cheating to swing a close election (Florida '00, Ohio '04). Our one vote will <b>never</b> swing an election. Part of me actually got a case of "why even bother?" syndrome last election, but I made my vote for Kerry anyway on principle.</p> YES, we get one whole electoral vote, thankyouverymuch.

Does Rhode Island even get one electoral vote or is it a fraction?

Brian and I were talking about what would happen if we had McCain vs. Rodham Clinton in ’08…I might actually have to think about where my vote would go, which I don’t think I’ve ever had to do in a Presidential election.

“Even an eeeevil plan is surely better than undirected pure stupidity…right?”

No, I prefer undirected pure stupidity.

He could get caught on camera sodomizing a Cub Scout troop on the floor of the Oval Office and the Republicans would still find a way to keep him smelling fresh as a daisy. I'm actually <b>more</b> scared by the thought of this administration without Rove--then they'll just be stupid and bungling without any vision or plan behind them.
