The Other Foot Falls

We are another step closer to having a multi-party system in this country. Bob Barr might do for Republicans what Ralph Nader did for Democrats eight years ago. If that happens I think we might see people start to vote for policy not party. The old system of government, where all politicians are the same as all other politicians, the only difference is what lies they tell us to get elected, might go the way of the dodo; or it might not. We might be seeing one of those elections that are once in a lifetime. I hope not.
