Election Day is upon us.  I voted early this year so I wouldn't have to deal with the crowds today.  If you haven't already voted, you need to do so.  Although I'd prefer that everyone vote for Kerry (for the reasons I've already pointed out), my overriding desire is that people simply vote.  Not participating in the democratic process means your voice is not heard.  It also means that you should shut up for the next four years since you'll have no right to complain if you didn't participate in the process.

Sorry, but I have no patience for armchair quarterbacks who don't bother to participate in the game yet feel it's their right to bitch and moan about who wins and what happens next.  If you're going to sit on the sidelines, keep your opinions there with you.

So get out and vote!
