The Deal

A heck of a lot of Americans read this journal.

So this is my last plea. Today, please vote. Its really, really important that you do; I think you all saw last time that every vote (coupled with some really good lawyers) made all the difference.

This time, lets not need to have the lawyers, yes?

I don't expect you to be guided by the opinions of someone who lives 4000 miles away in one of the most stagnant democracies in the world. That would be silly. But please vote for John Kerry, just to give us Brits the simple joy of hearing Tony Blair say "Fuck" when Bush loses if nothing else.

Oh yes, the deal. The deal is this. Hundreds of you read this everyday, and in return I ask for one litte thing. Just that today you make the trek to the polling station; disregard the media frenzy, what Fox TV has told you, what Michael Moore has told you and do the right thing.

Ok. Preaching over. Tonight I shall be describing the levels of wastedness from the eyes of a newcomer to such things. Neither candidate would approve.
