    & Fred Hahn rocks. So great to have a major union leader who's a socialist, an open fag, a total sweetheart, a militant, a negotiator.

    I'd like to confess right off the back that I'm American, so I can't know too much about Ontarian politics, but I have been following this election closely since the beginning. If I were Ontarian, I would support the anyone-but-Hudak strategic voting or voting for the Greens/other smaller leftist parties. It's bad vs. bad vs. worse in this election, so any choice will be really hard to swallow, but a Hudak government is the worst-case scenario.

    We got partial to a best case -- a Liberal majority -- so weird to say as a revolutionary. But the ultra right Conservatives were beat bad, and the right opportunist NDP got a knock. And the coalition is over.

    On with the class war!

    Hooray! More scandals and corporate handouts!

    You have it the wrong way around, Brad. Staying at home legitimizes the electoral system, because "if you don't vote, you shouldn't complain."

    I'm pretty sure it's "if you vote, you have no right to complain."
