LOL - so who is "Sherry Drake" anyway?? :)

(To those who are neither California residents nor registered US
Democrats, an explanation: I got all these calls, too, many of them
from a mysterious woman named Sherry Drake, who called every single
day. Or, rather, an automated call with a recording from her was
placed to my phone every day.)

I also got tons and tons of junk mail about it. You'd think this
was the presidential election of the century, instead of just a
mid-term election. I'll bet the trees that were still standing the
day after the election had a big party!

And voter turnout was STILL way, way down! Some of the issues WERE important (like the education legislation) - what a pity so few people care enough to let their voices be heard! (Thats how dictatorships get started - when people stop thinking they can make a difference, the politicians with the least interest in the "common good" take over.)
