      The USA is not a democracy and it is both parties that made sure of that.

        yeah, true, many people do want that but we’re talking about Florida.

        edit: but i guess we’ll see. not impossible and i hope i’m wrong. it’s been fairly easy the last 35 years to guess which way an election will go. sorry, i’m buzzed and ready to pass out
