[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] <blockquote>"Remember! A vote for ANYONE ELSE is a vote against Bush."</blockquote> Well, actually, no. Not the way our election system is set up. If all of Bush's supporters vote for Bush, and all of his detractors divide up their votes among multiple candidates, Bush is more likely to win. As sad a state as it is, the [i]only[/i] candidate that can [i]possibly[/i] beat Bush is the Democrat. If your primary goal is to get rid of Bush, then a vote for anyone other than the Democratic candidate is actually detrimental. Now, on the main topic of the thread: The craziest thing about this theoretical amendment is that it isn't even proposed to ban gay marriage. What they plan to do is just make it so you can't [i]call[/i] it a "marriage". They're trying to constitutionally define a particular word to mean a very small subset of its actual definition. Fortunately, amendments to the Constitution are very difficult to accomplish. Unless an insane number of homophobes are elected to he federal and state legislatures this November, I'd be surprised if they can get the requisite two-thirds vote in Washington, much less three-quarters of the states.
