What's With All the Spam?

Seriously ... like you're going to convince somebody today after failing to convince them in the past year or so? Most of the spammage is just e scare tactics with little to no intelligent arguments anyway.

I totally agree, except that they're not scary.:stongue:

Jesus, no ! Besides, I think most pundits believe it's been decided weeks ago. But on another tangential argument, I really don't understand the rationale of those "undecided" voters up to this point. How the could anyone still be undecided, especially after the debates? Personally I think they're either intellectually lazy or damn wishy washy in all decision making processes of their collective lives. These two candidates couldn't be any more different - how the hell could anyone be undecided?

If you dont vote for candidate X, your genitals will be removed by alien scientists while the loch ness monster looks on and the tooth fairy broadcasts your predicament via satellite to Santa and the elves at the North Pole.


On a side note, it will be interesting to see how long it takes to sort out this years election mess....

I was undecided until last night. I was a pretty firm Nader vote until the story about Rehnquiest (sp?) broke, at which point I started seriously debating a vote for Kerry, because of my beleifs about Supreme court justices and appointing them. But I decided to do what I thought was right and vote for who I felt was the most competent for the job (and who was actually running).

Its vital to get young americans to vote.

I hope a little spamming by me will get them off their asses.

Well I hope :D

That's in interesting take, and one I had not considered. I do hope you realize that there is a great deal more on the line than just Rehnquist, but I don't think you were as undecided as you think you were if you were a "pretty firm" Nader voter, so I don't think my question necessarily applies to your rationale. I was more or less referring to those undecideds between Bush and Kerry.

I seriously dont see how someone can vote for Nader- Althought you may agree with all his views- blah blah blah- He is not a feasable candidate to win. Im glad YOU at least realized this - unfortunately many others think they're making their voice heard (and pretty much voting for Bush at that point- which im pretty sure would be 3rd on their list)
