I'm disgusted with the dismal leadership our politicians provide also. I think writing in a candidate will be a better way to communicate disgust with politicians of both parties than not voting at all though.
I think I'll write my sons name in,,he's only 5 but he says whats on his mind and is not shy to voice an unpopular opinion.
ie. (as he went up the stairs to bed the other night)Mom,,your butt's big

Same here, disgusted with the leadership in congress and senate, they seem to be interested in keeping their position than choosing the "right thing " to do.

Suggest everyone watch the special on George Washington, The Warrior on the History channel. He did it right. he hated the job, and was glad to leave. and never returned to public service!

I for one will VOTE, and i will vote any and every incumbent OUT!
As i am reminded that our soldiers fight for our right to participate in a democratic election.

The congressional THUGS who sang God Bless America after 9/11 on TV are the same thugs who can't seem to deal with any important issues. And are selling us down the river with immigration? The Senate is no better, maybe worse! They are all out of touch with the common man!

Suddenly, gay marriage, steroids and flag burning are more important than immigration and energy? I don't think so. I will VOTE!
I encourage every one else to VOTE, as long as you VOTE!

You forgot Abortion. If only we could abort our whole system and start afresh. Wait... Peak Oil IS going to abort the system! Along with the proverbial bath water.

In my opinion, a vote for a Democrat or a Republican is a wasted vote. I vote my conscience and my principles, and have voted Green for many years. The California Green Party has 59 Greens holding local office. We have a full slate running for statewide offices, including Peter Camejo for governor. Don't waste your vote. Vote Peace. Vote Green.

I'm pretty disgusted too. The last election (Y2K4)was such that I purposely grabbed a GOP ballot in the primary and wrote in Osama bin Laden for president! In previous cases I wrote myself in where both candidates for an office were repugnant. I would love to be able to type in this:
