american politics

Another reason why Obama is the better candidate (well, kinda, or more that his supporters are marginally less twattish than Clinton's):

"Recent polls suggest that more than a quarter of Mrs Clinton's supporters would defect to the Republicans if Mr Obama wins. Almost a fifth of his voters threaten to switch if she becomes the Democrat nominee."

1/4 and 1/5 of democrats would go republican if their democrat didn't win??

You've got to be fucking nuts. I'm such a strong supporter, I'll change my whole ideology out of spite if my horse don't win the popularity contest, yeehaw!

Fucking politics blah blah fucking americans grumble blah rant GOOD MORNING WORLD.

I have rehearsals today. I shouldn't be in a bad mood as it will be fun, but it's also The Morning. Blah.

I'm pretty sure they didn't start that. And while it may have been a key component of their society I don't think it was a central tenant of their democracy.

But I may be wrong.

"I don't think it was a central tenant of their democracy."

I hope they gave it the right to buy, provided it kept up with its rent. It's only fair.

Oh, definitely. I'll happily hang from a chain round the neck of any beautiful woman! :)

I think they were on one of those shared ownership deals with the local housing association to be honest. Key-worker status and all that...
