Political content

I voted for Kerry for President, but this year I also registered as a member of the Green Party. They recently published a funny ad in the New York Times that pretty much sums up why I joined (although the first five issues they list are of much greater concern to me than the last two). The ad is on the home page of their web site right now, but I don't know how long it will be there.

I know some people say that there will never be viable alternative political parties in the US. They're probably right, but I just can't bring myself to act accordingly.

I voted for Kerry, but voted Green for Congress

Although if Tom Lantos had been in any danger, I probably would have
voted for him.

Sometimes I feel like I have useless votes in my district, as Pete Stark wins handily election after election. My votes don't seem to help him. That said, I don't have those horrible nail-biter election nights on that front, either.
