One hacker, who goes by the name of Abhaxas, decided to prove that votes aren't secure by exposing parts of the Florida voting database. Said Abhaxas while posting the data, 'Who believes voting isn't tampered with?'"

    We need a better system, like having all candidates participate as contestants on one of those crazy Japanese game shows. This would immediately disqualify Sara Palin, as she can't even find Japan on a map.

    Maybe not, but she can easily find it in real life. She just looks across her back fence, where she can see Russia, then looks zt the islands just to the left. Those are Japan.

    It's a lot harder on a map, y'know.

    A blood test later revealed that he had recently taken a Viagra.

    Wow. Is that a non sequitur or what? Just what the hell are they screening for in Ohio?

    Erection fraud?
