A few weeks ago I was chatting with my buddy Jimmy about the
Toronto mayoral elections, and he said, "Remember that movie
Brewster's Millions? I want to vote for 'none of the above.'" The basic plot of this movie is that the Richard Pryor character Montgomery Brewster has 30 days to spend $30 million, and if he can do it, he will win $300 million. So in order to blow as much money as possible, Brewster decides to stage a "none of the above" protest campaign for the New York City mayor's seat. I kind of feel the same way about the US mid-term Senate and Congressional elections. The Republicans are bat-shit crazy and the Democrats are total pansies, and both parties are in bed with big money lobbyists and rich corporate assholes. They all disgust me.

Republicans. That's what scares people these days. That, and Democrats." -
