Because I'm sitting here in my cubicle but I can't make myself work, because I'm still stunned, angry, depressed and ready to fight, I started thinking about election reform.

My first thought was, how about changing things so that we only vote for candidates on the first Tuesday in November? No initiatives, no referendums, no school board initiatives. They can have a separate day. And how about mail - in ballots for president? Or how about letting Visa take over -- 120 million Americans voted, if we believe the stats, I bet Visa handles 120 million transactions in one day.
