Kerry is clueless. That's the freaky thing. He's just plain clueless.

I would love it if anybody could devise a way to hold elections with no stolen votes or lost votes, but it seems like human ingenuity to connive is without limit.

Unfortunately, so is human stupidity. Falling for a joke story from the Onion or Scrappleface is hard to imagine, but I see people on the Internet do it all the time, including people here on PFP. Less here than other places, e.g., Free Republic.

That's the deeper meaning of movies like "The Terminator." No matter how carefully you program a machine, it's always going to be inherently stupid, and stupid is dangerous. That's why democracy is better. Two heads are better than one, and millions are better than two.
