Less than one in ten voters were youth voters, in spite of the massive youth voter registration that happened earlier this year. Less than one! That means either all of you fucks were dwarves or you guys were lazy assholes and stayed home to play video games. If the number had been higher , I think I would be less pissed, but I geniunely beleive that the blame for this failure to oust the current administration can be shouldered by those who did not show up. They could have made the margin closer or perhaps overtaken the millions of morons who turned up for another four years of this crap. And it’s not like I didn’t do my part to inform the youth. I did two PSAs targetted at youth listeners on our radio station, and I was in contact with friends who were under the age of 25, to make sure they heard me “Nag the Vote.” I mean, I could understand not wanting to clean your room, but spending five minutes to vote was apparently way too much. In California, they even made voting easier by turning the damn thing into a video game with touchscreens. Don’t get me wrong, I was THRILLED to see a 110+ million people show up for this thing, but it would have rocked to see 120 million, and have the youth voters vote Democratic.
Oh, and Ralph Nader can go fuck himself for taking 1% away from Kerry. Thanks, you pompous eye-twitching bastard.

Mike, I share your views on this.
To the lazy-ass youth voters of America:
Thanks a lot for not voting. And don’t bitch about how the country’s gone to hell, because you don’t have the right to.
Thanks.

That’s the only bad thing about the election being over, no more funny-ass Net Zero ads. ><

Writing in Kodos would’ve been better than not voting. *sigh*
