The fact that candidates have been reduced to and have stooped to doing and saying anything--sometimes in contradiction of what they actually believe--to win a majority of votes among the 50% of the population that votes is appalling.
Griffith, is more fun than I thought it would be.
Greg, I think Nia was talking directly to me on the Steinem post above, and probably assumed I would get her reference without her calling names.

And they've devised a cost-effective way of cutting legal limits on all roads in a stroke.
Nia Griffith, Labour MP for Llanelli in Carmarthenshire, wants UK speed signs to be read as kilometres per hour instead of the familiar miles per hour - and 70kph on M-ways equates to 43mph.
This would cut the limits by two-thirds without having to replace a single signpost.

 COMMENTS
Somebody may care about Gore's endorsement, as you say, Greg, but I'd want to be sure that I have it straight as to who that "you people" is that cares; otherwise, it might be difficult to know whether you are correct or incorrect.
God knows I don't want to appear ungentlemanly, so allow me to respectfully suggest that until there is a generally-accepted paradigm of political reference around here, there's little point in discussing the relative positions of candidates, and how those positions or the candidates' movement within the paradigm will affect their standing with voters.
Until then, let me also ask you all how Dean, if he indeed becomes the nominee, is supposed to win the election when he wants to raise taxes, wants to implement some vaguely-defined national health care system, and has no plan for combating terrorism.

 Nuclear-Free Wales MPs Take War to Downing Street - Science - RedOrbit   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
More than 2,350 people from Wales signed the petition opposing new nuclear stations, which was presented to Downing Street by Labour MPs Nia Griffith and Martin Caton, and Liberal Democrat MP Jenny Willott.
Ms Griffith said, 'Our opposition to nuclear power stems from the horrific legacy of nuclear waste, the enormous cost and the timescale, which means that new nuclear power stations could not be ready in time to fill the energy gap.
Newport West MP Paul Flynn, who was involved in the 1981 nuclear- free declaration, said, 'Wales' voice was heard at that time and I think it should be heard strongly again, against this preposterous idea of new nuclear power stations.

Llanelli MP Nia Griffith says the move, which would in effect reduce the limits by 40%, would slash the number of deaths on the road as well as the amount of carbon emissions.
And she believes the idea, unlike other environmental or road safety measures, would be almost entirely cost-free, as no signs would need to be changed.
She said motorways could be an exception at 80kph, (50mph), as there are no signs to change.

 A cost-effective way of reducing emissions: You say MPH, I say KPH - AutoblogGreen
We're all aware that reducing your speed while driving leads to fuel savings and reduced emissions, but no one in their right mind in Washington is going to suggest we lower speed limits.
Auto Express is reporting that last week, while the Members of the British Parliament were discussing climate change, Nia Griffith, a Labour Party MP (Member of Parliament), suggested an extremely cost-effective way of reducing the speed limit on all roads.
Auto Express didn't speculate as to whether Griffith's suggestion would turn into a bill and passed into law (or whatever legal terminology they use across the pond), but she did apparently get some support from the Liberal Democrat MP Lynne Featherstone.
