"Neither" wasn't a choice... This is a good demonstration of just how the US political system has evolved/devolved.... If you're not in one party or the other, your not taken seriously and run the risk of incurring other people cynical remarks... LOL...
When was the last time, or any time, an 'independent' was elected? :hmm:

You are absolutely correct DI. The last time a serious independent canditate (other than Joe Liberman in Connecticut, b/c the Democrats didn't like his stance on the actions in Iraq, what does that tell you) was Ross Perot. He sucked votes from GHWB and Bill Clinton was elected as a result.
Independents are nothing more than 'blood suckers' for the fringe. That is why you'll never see an independent candidate so long as the current system is in place. They have been even more marginalized.
Remember:
Every country gets the government it deserves.
