    Or you can, like Howard Dean, attempt to pull the Democratic party back to liberalism from within, instead of acting like the lone ranger.

    The only other choice is to change the way we vote - institute Instant Runoff Voting.

    This one isn't.

    Although looking back on it, it was definetly one of those "lesser of-two-evils" votes. I forget who the dem nominee was, but he ran such a horrible campaign (in my opinion) it was almost impossible to vote for the guy.

    He was that guy who was married to Captain Janeaway.

    It was Tim Hagan. I thought he stomped Taft in the debate(s?), but I doubt anyone was actually watching.
