i think the two party system has its problems, but can you imagine having like 8 candidates running for president? "and Gerald Irish wins the presidency with a overwhelming 17% of the popular vote". that would mean that over 80% thought someone else would be better (women probably not included...)
and matt, while i understand your frustration, its important to know that there's also local elections which took place which are probably more important to affect you directly. in c'ville, the house of reps elected the incumbent virgil goode, and there were also two bills that were passed due to the voting yesterday. so its not just the presidential election that you missed. however, the more support a guy like nader gets, the more eligible for funding he is for the next election, so votes always count.
