My cubicle neighbour and I were talking about strategic voting today.
Well, actually, we were talking about coffee.
You see, when we go for a coffee lately, we take the elevator down to street level and then go our separate ways. He goes north west to Starbucks, and I go south east to Second Cup.
Our conversation went something like this….
Stewart: “I really dislike Second Cup coffee.”
Glenn: “Really? I just can’t drink Starbucks coffee. It doesn’t agree with me, and I feel off all day.”
Stewart: “Well, I don’t really like Starbucks either, but I dislike it less than Second Cup.”
pause…
Stewart: “Isn’t that a sad state of affairs, when you choose something you dislike over something you hate?”
Glenn: “Yeah.”
pause…
Glenn: “It’s just like voting in Canada!”
Fortunately on October 10, we have the opportunity to give Ontario another choice.
Vote YES for MMP. It’s the most strategic thing you can do this year!

How very typical that story is! (Unfortunately!!) I, too, in the past have voted a for a specific candidate/party, not because I wanted them in, or agreed with their platform, but because I DIDN’T want ‘the OTHER guy’ to get into power! NO MORE! There IS a viable alternative…and it’s colored ‘GREEN’ !
Hey, you’re making out like I’m some SB apologist! I still fear the mermaid with no nipples, as Rev Billy would say: http://www.revbilly.com/
Now, if there were an Alternative Grounds nearby … or maybe I should pick up a coffee at the Rex.
