    i think most people feel that this election is too important to "waste" on anyone without a chance of winning. Kucinich and Paul and others are getting destroyed. Tough year to be too far from the middle.

    I think Nader basically insured no fringe candidate gets a chance for awhile.

    Yeah, lots of people are also jackasses and think Kucinich is too "extreme" but whatever.

    I'm pissed, but what can I do about it? The only thing we can do is just try to find the best choice that has a chance of winning.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    If only he was given a chance to get his word out and debate.

    I'm upset but not surprised. We live in a country where money and corporations talk and when we get an honest and anti-corporate candidate like Kucinich, he'll lose, sadly.

    yea, pissed but not surprised. maybe the recount he's requesting will change that.

    the whole thing is fishy.. obama leads by a lot in every poll, then loses? because hillary cried? come on now..

    we really need to get rid of these electronic voting machines. if we don't, then we can't call ourselves a democracy (if we can otherwise..)

    let me rephrase the question just a little.

    Is anyone SURPRISED by it? i can't see being pissed without first being surprised, and i really don't think anyone is.

    I'd only have been pissed if I'd actually thought he would do better coming in. I wish he would, but it's not realistic. So if I was to be pissed at that, I'd spend my life being pissed at everything.

    I thought NH was considered a live free or die state.

    apparently not
