Since the Baseball season has just ended....Lets talk politics!!

I am a huge supporter of Colorados push for Amendment 36, and I wish the country would follow suit. Amendment 36 would allow a proportional allocation of the states electoral college votes. It would make your vote actually count!!! Basically Amendment 36 works like this. Colorado has 9 electoral votes. Under our current system if Kerry receives 51% of the votes and Bush 49%, Kerry receives all 9 electoral votes. Amendment 36 would split the votes proportionally and give Kerry 5 votes and Bush 4 votes. In essence it would eliminate the idea of a wasted vote. Currently if you live in a state that is a sure thing for the Republicans, a vote for Kerry is a vote of conscious, not impact. With proportional allocation of electoral votes, your votes counts for something. It counts directly for the candidate you voted for!! Isn't that what we want? Our voice being heard and an impact being made, because of it. I feel proportional allocation would invigorate the voting public. It seems to me this would change the candidates approach to campaigning drastically. It would force candidates to pay attention to the country as a whole, and not cater too heavily in small pockets of the country. In the limited research I've done it seems like a great idea. I'm sure there are draw backs, but what system doesn't have em? Just before I go, let it be known that I'm writing with a heavy heart. My beloved Yankees are losing, and are going to lose tonight's game verses the Bo Sox. If my Grandfather would still be alive I'm sure he would be going for a Cardinal/Yanks World Series, his two favorite teams. Sadly enough he is not around to see the post season action this year. Well, I'm pulling for the the NL Champ. Down with the Red Sox, the mini Evil Empire. Yanks in '05 baby!!!

Fox did what!!!!!

I just can't believe it. Fox actually made up quotes concerning John Kerry. Whats next? Who knows? Pretty soon major networks may produce fake documents about Bush. That would never happen though, right?
