None of the above.

Man, I wish every state would start having a "none of the above" option on every ballot. The traditional response to such a measure would be to toss the candidates that ran and infuse the process with some mandatory new blood. And that would be satisfactory. But my response to a "none of the above" win would be to let the position lie fallow for the duration of the term. Which would have meant, when the majority of Americans threw up the hands in disgust yesterday and voted that neither Bush, nor Kerry, nor Badnarik, nor Nader, nor Cobb, nor Peroutka, nor any other candidate whose name temporarily escapes me should be president, we'd do without for four years. NOTA would have been the best president ever...

"None of the above" would send a very good message, tho I'm not sure if leaving the office of the president empty for 4 years would be a very good thing.
