Voter's remorse

Today is the Illinois primary... and I voted for G-Rod, and I feel sick about it. I did it for the party, because I thought that Topinka would be more difficult to beat if an outsider with no machine support and no benefit of incumbency was running against her. But I shouldn't have done it, and I wish I could take it back. G-Rod doesn't deserve to win again.

On the other hand, the new touch-screen voting machines are great. Although they don't help resolve crises of conscience, because you can keep going back and changing your vote. I did it three times, and even cancelled a ballot before holding my nose and voting for the Gov'. Neat machines, though.

And with the voting slip I can probably get a discount at Powell's.
