[QUOTE="ColonelHardisson, post: 980467, member: 363"] As with any election, one must depend on the voters voting for whomever they feel is the best candidate. Obviously that isn't always true in the real world. But I'm an idealist. If you want to argue semantics with me, OK - you win. Now that that's been decided, I think the discussion would be better served by getting past what everyone thinks everyone else means, and proving they're wrong, and getting down to brass tacks. The current system is in place for this year. Is it perfect? I don't know. If you, or anyone else, has a concrete alternative for next year, then by all means, please lay it out clearly so that even a mook like me can understand it - facts, figures, charts, the whole nine yards, but presented so that someone who has a hard time doing long division (EDIT: like me!) can figure it out. Sheesh. I thought this was gonna be fun. ;) EDIT: I'm sorry to sound so harsh. [/QUOTE]
