Count me among the Missourians who voted for the dead guy (Mel Carnahan) instead of Ashcroft. Of course, perhaps Ashcroft would be doing less damage in the U.S. Senate. Carnahan's spot was served by wife Jean Carnahan for 2 years, and Republican Jim Talent was elected in a special election in November 2002. So the Republicans got the seat eventually, and Ashcroft is AG. ACK
I finally saw the movie yesterday. I have not been so affected by a movie in a long time. My hope is that it will motivate the people who do not usually vote to go to the polls.
Interesting article on Fahrenheit 9/11 and it's effect on voters: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5487374/ Also says that it should be out on video a few weeks before Election Day and that a higher % of adult Americans have said they'll view it on video than see it in the theater.
gee Danny, i noticed your hometown mentioned rather prominently in the article. you didnt have anything to do with the gist of the content did you?
