138. Emphatically NO!
Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 10:51 AM by slackmaster
I don't blame Republican citizens for casting votes that they believe (rightly or wrongly or both) are in their best interests or the interests of the country.

I DO blame all the people who whine about the way things are, and who didn't bother to register or vote.

ETA Our system is inherently adversarial at all levels. Without contrary positions, the value of any point of view is diminished. Without a robust opposition, any party that is in power will become lazy and corrupt.
