One way or another, the votes have to be cast and the totals will determine whether a bill passes or fails, be it 435 votes or 10,000 votes. As far as fracticousness goes, who said that's necessarily a bad thing? We don't live in a Parlimentary system where fracticions sometimes make governemnt unwieldy and unstable. How many third party candidates have actually won a seat in Congress over the past 100 years. Some of those who won, weren't even allowed ot take their seats, because their politics were too controversal. There you go again, blowing things out of proportion, and insulting the people of Mississippi in the process. As if the people in Mississippi would actually be in favor of such an immoral law. Please use better more realistic examples to make your arguements. Isn't this the same FDA that denied for years that cigarette smoking could lead to serious illnesses like cancer? Blah, blah, blah.
