Why are there Republicans? Because of television, I guess.
If people vote their conscience, their pocket book, their health care, their safety… Democrats would be a super majority.
The few folks that vote their prejudices would pull the Republican lever in the voting booth, but that does not send anyone to Washington or a State House.
It must be that the television lies to us… and we watch it and trust it too much.
I wish I could answer the TV back.
But that wish would be un-American.

I chose not to purchase any on line music or books in October or November and I think I am tanking the economy. I am panicking the on line stores and getting flooded with incredible bonus emails... just in time for holiday shopping. Now that is gaming the market. I even went so far as to go into a book store on the way home from work one night... and pay cash.
