O misery

So it failed again. Another four years of G.W. Bush. Again Ralph Nader looses. A bit late but today I saw the perfect defense in favour of J.F.K. by writer David Amsden:

But why Kerry, aside from his status as Democratic Other Guy, which, frankly, would be enough for me this year? Well, I like his stoicism — he seems smart, and serious, and sort of boring, and exactly like the kind of man I can't relate to, which is what I want from a leader. I don't understand why we're so keen on having someone who seems cool and perfectly personable—I have friends for that, late-night TV, strangers in parks.
