'World of Warcraft' Candidate For Maine State Senate Wins Election
Teancum writes "Colleen Lachowicz, candidate for the State Senate District 25 of Maine, won the election yesterday against her opponent Thomas Martin. This race was notable in part because her World of Warcraft character that was mentioned earlier on Slashdot, where the Maine Republican Party turned her game playing into a significant issue. It is also notable that she was able to raise a total of $6,300 in campaign contributions from gamers who came to her defense in her successful campaign. The Maine GOP even tried to block these contributions where Lachowicz was cleared of any wrong doing and the investigation was dropped."
Then again tens of millions of Americans run successful businesses, and the Democrats demonize them. Those couple million in the top 1% are absolutely evil and must be punished.
You are obviously under the impression that there is a difference between Republicans and Democrats.
When you are a bit older or less brainwashed by news sources you'll realize there is little to no real difference between the parties. They both throw around a couple social legislation ideas that are only slightly different (mostly to try to divide the electorate) but otherwise on nearly every other aspect of government they are identical. And by running around claiming either party is the devil you've fallen into their trap of dividing the electorate so that they can control the electorate. It also makes you a fool.
