Congratulations Alabama voters...

We have succeeded in screwing ourselves for another 4 years. The primary certianly didn't go the way that I thought it would...and honestly has left me wondering if there is intelligent life here.

The choices given to us for Gov I know were not top of the heap by any standards..

Bob Riley - The incumbant. The person who told us that if we didn't pass a tax hike then the state would ge bankrupt...then when it didn't pass somehow "found" over 2 BILLION in surplus...but still cut funding to the schools that he so desperately wanted to "help"

Don Seigleman - The man is under investigation for fraud. Need I say more?

Lucy Baxley - The current Lt. Gov who somehow won the primary for the Dem ticket...without ever having to actually take a platform....any platform...nothing...kinda like what she's done for the past 4 years in office.

and lastly...

Roy Moore - the Ex-Supreme Court Justice who was ousted from the bench due to the ten commandments. Can you lead a state when you can't follow the laws you were elected to uphold?

So those were the choices....not much of a choice I know...but now in November we only have to choose between the "do nothing" and the "mathematician".....not much of a choice there really....it's kinda sad. Pretty much like the state of Alabama...pretty sad.
