I'm an independent, even towards myself and I experimented with
   an election once. I voted for George the 2nd time (I forgot to
   vote in the 2000 election but I was H. Ross Perot before that
   just to be a monkey wrench in the 2 party system): Anyway, I
   voted 'cause I thought, "Ok: EVEN THOUGH it's all fucked up,
   he's gonna win anyway, and I like his cabinet". And, I did like
   his cabinet. So, I voted for him. A month later, he fires his
   entire cabinet. Last time I run that experiment.
