Title: RE: Call for a re-vote.

correct me if i'm wrong (although i doubt it) - (no intended vanity in that last comment, really!)
but, wasn't this "butterfly ballot" the brainchild of some leading florida democrat?
that's what my sources have said.

peace & veggies,

Bull-fricken-caca.  There is absolutely *no* misalignment on the ballot. 
If thousands of people voted for the wrong guy -- and there is absolutely
no way anybody could *know* that, even if it were true -- it's because
they didn't take the time to follow the directions.  Anybody *that*
careless *deserves* to have their vote go to Buchanan.

Democrats and Republicans both approved the ballot in advance.  You don't
change the rules *after* you've played the game.
