Our Canadian elections are in a few weeks, and we've sadly been reduced to voting for the lesser evil (as in "Who would screw the country less?"). You have a similar choice in America, I think.
To offer my 2k worth: yes Al Gore lacks charisma. Yes, his V-P running-mate is a Board member of the PTC... but let's face it: George W. Bush is in many ways Dan Quayle with a different name. He's stupid, mean-spirited, and spearheading a party that plans to drive the country back into financial doldrums while looking to start a war somewhere, hoping to recreate the economic boom WW2 brought.
The Republicans back in office would be a disaster for women, ethnic groups of any flavor, and generally anyone who isn't a rich white male. Mind you, that's just my opinion, and you can take it or leave it.
Just make sure to vote. My motto is "If you don't vote, you have no right to complain."
