Choosing the lesser of two evils is always better than sitting back and waiting to see what happens. If you had to choose between, say, Bush, Kerry, or... Ryan Seacrest (American Idol's on in the background
), wouldn't you want to make sure that Seacrest
didn't win? And don't say it wouldn't happen, because look at Ahnold.
As for the electoral college, we should get rid of it. I don't remember why it was instated, but it was proved obsolete in the last election.
