There are Democrats, and there are shamefaced Democrats, and the "League of Pissed Off Voters" is set up to appeal to the latter. When you look at their website <http://indyvoter.org/>, it uses two names alternately: the "League of Pissed Off Voters" and the "League of Independent Voters." The "League of Pissed Off Voters" just had its national convention <http://indyvoter.org/article.php?id=72> at the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. From a friend of mine who ran into the League's national organizers at a bar tonight, I hear that about 250 attended the convention, but only 15 from Columbus itself. 15 is 15 too many.

will plead ignorance re. lopov, saw name on poster, chuckled, thought to myself kinda funny, even thought 'group' might be joke, thought up by someone/small group with no serious intention of having legs for mass outreach, so my initial comments about 'rightous name' and 'growing group' were supposed to be irony (which often travels poorly in cyberspace)... so 250 people had 'national convention', doesn't matter who they are, what they stand for, what their name is, where they've been or where they're going, group is a joke (if not in manner of my immediate reaction to name lopov)... fwiw: league rep at ann arbor forum yesterday argued for voting for anybody but kerry or bush, guess she's out of step with her comrades re. dem candidate... michael hoover -------------------------------------------------------------- Please Note: Due to Florida's very broad public records law, most written communications to or from College employees regarding College business are public records, available to the public and media upon request.
