So we should just forget about voting altogether then, and go to a new system called "one dollar, one vote." Right?

Well, there is that "weak candidate" thing and a dismsl record that can't be promoted, just avoided.
That's OK, it happens.

Shame, shame, shame, but sadly, I think Moore's right.
The one that has the most money spent behind him always wins and voter suppression on OH, FL, and WI, most likely, will cause a bad dream to come true.

I think he correctly pointed out that the culprit will likely be complacency or despondency on the left. The young kids were super enthusiastic in 2008. They will not be so gung ho in 2012. They have really had their butts kicked in this recession. However, if they think Romney has their back, they are dreaming. The right has energy, and they left needs to find it, or I agree with Moore. It could be an upset.

Interesting article by Mr. Moore. Can't stand the guy but at least he is honest.

No more so than it drove the liberals insane in the 2000 election.
