      - They are a traditonal agency. I've never worked in one. I don't know the ropes of how a real agency works. - lileve Nov 4, 13:49 5
        
        Fine, then they can always come back and say they only positions available or they would consider you for are Junior ones. -- nm - VMan Nov 4, 13:50 1

    - It really depends how well you know the other party too. -- nm - VMan Nov 4, 13:43 7
      - Yeah that's true. I would also probably include "I am happy to be available to discuss matters at any time with you if you so wish"...or words to that - Loyola Nov 4, 13:45 6

One last word from me since it seems there were a lot of posts while I was driving home - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:27 44
- repost! -- (link) - dogbert183 Nov 4, 13:46 [Backboard]
- With all due respect, I think 3 is a self-justifying copout and pretty condescending. - pmb Nov 4, 13:39 11
  - My vote is my vote. I don't dare mock your choice, and I'd expect the same courtesy. - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:43 10
    - You didn't make a choice. There's nothing to mock. - Candidate Vermin Nov 4, 13:47 4
      - Well, then, I mock you for your choice {nm} - Banzai! Nov 4, 13:49 2
        
        By all means! :) -- nm - Candidate Vermin Nov 4, 13:52 1
        
        Dammit. Called my bluff. I pay so little attention, I don't know who anyone's choices are! {nm} - Banzai! Nov 4, 13:54
      - yes he did, he chose not to go through the motions just to appease someone or something -- nm - dogbert183 Nov 4, 13:48
    - I'm not mocking your vote, I'm mocking your reasoning. - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:46 1
      - Err, you reasoning for not voting, that is. (nm) - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:47
    - Vote or don't vote (I happen to disagree with your choice but so be it). Just don't claim it's because you value your vote more than those who do - pmb Nov 4, 13:46 2
      - Read closer. I said I value my vote differently than most here. Not more. - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:48 1
        
        More is implied (i.e. you have a higher standard for a candidate to meet therefore you value your vote more). But fine. I'll take you at your word - pmb Nov 4, 13:52
- You can't write-in on your ballot? You can't decline to pick a certain race? - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:39
- I'd be surprised if your ballot was lacking a write-in line, where you could put whatever option you choose. - Candidate Vermin Nov 4, 13:38 13
  - My town can't get attention from the state govt, much less the federal govt. - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:39 12
    - You're being part of the problem you're decrying. - Candidate Vermin Nov 4, 13:42 3
      - serious question -- who is going to do what with that write-in information? {nm} - Banzai! Nov 4, 13:44 2
        
        [shrug] It gets reported. - Candidate Vermin Nov 4, 13:49 1
        
        I think she'll run regardless of write-ins. She may use the figures for marketing, though. {nm} - Banzai! Nov 4, 13:51
    - i really think that's what this is about. Hillary. -- nm - Andie Nov 4, 13:41 7
      - Pretty much. It's not belief the system is broken, or that a single vote won't count. - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:43 6
        
        it's the exact opposite of "a single vote won't count." -- nm - loosilu - I voted! Nov 4, 13:54
        
        if one vote counts, then one vote can screw things up. -- nm - dogbert183 Nov 4, 13:50 2
        
        If he's as passionate about Hillary as he has shown, how on *earth* would writing in Hillary screw things up? - musubi Voted For Change 2 weeks ago Nov 4, 13:51 1
        
        well maybe once he's there he votes on other things on the ticket that he's not knowledgable about and screws up something locally - dogbert183 Nov 4, 13:55
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        You know nothing of me. Just don't. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:51
- One honest question... did you not vote for everything because you weren't interested in the main ticket or did you actually read up on all races - Mr. Havens Nov 4, 13:36 1
  - The local races are not this year (mayor/alderman/etc). I have a bile for 90% of the big race people. - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:38
- I just don't see it - Banzai! Nov 4, 13:34 1
  - True, but I'd rather have the Will's of the world in the voting booth than some of these other morons. -- nm - CrankYanker Nov 4, 13:36
- Just so we're clear: I'm saving my tar and feathers for another day. But I do have them. -- nm - David Nov 4, 13:30
- nicely put. Our ballot here had a 'I do not wish to vote for any of these choices' button -- nm - decline Nov 4, 13:30
- Ok whatever. But will you try stuffed shrimp again if I give Kelly a great recipe? - Trish Nov 4, 13:29 5
  - Depends; the garlic wasn't very good in her last recipe. - Will Hunting Nov 4, 13:33 1
    - *sigh* -- nm - kelly Nov 4, 13:35
  - Heh. - kelly Nov 4, 13:33 2
    - Maybe you should just start serving 11 patties and mock him! - Trish Nov 4, 13:39 1
      - Nah, tonight I'm ordering Chinese food and heading to the movies. :) -- nm - kelly Nov 4, 13:46
- I still don't see why you didn't just write in your preference and vote on local issues -- nm - oblique - I voted! Nov 4, 13:29
- I'm just glad you don't have a ballot for Cooperstown -- nm - crash davis Nov 4, 13:28
- I know you feel strongly about Biden (and clearly, about Obama, for picking Biden), so ... it's a fair choice. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 4, 13:28
- fair enough. -- nm - Remlik Nov 4, 13:28
I'm just going to come out and say it. - David Nov 4, 13:27 18
- The Cloverfield Monster was never a viable candidate because it's not an American-born citizen. The law is very clear on this point -- nm - Mr. Havens Nov 4, 13:31
- "Remlik is my role model and Icon" why thank you David. It's nice to be a mentor to someone who needs it. -- nm - Remlik Nov 4, 13:28 8
  - He's got hair, you silly git. -- nm - Trish Nov 4, 13:30 7
    - What does that have to do with anything. I'm super sexy with a smooth head. That makes Vince want to be *me* -- nm - Remlik Nov 4, 13:31 6
      - I'm really hoping you aren't talking about Entourage's Vince, because that would mean you are delusional or have Mad Cow. - Trish Nov 4, 13:33 1
        
        o:) -- nm - Remlik Nov 4, 13:38
      - Hair = power. Ask Samson. -- nm - David Nov 4, 13:32 3
        
        and look where that got him with that Twirl! If he'd had it gone he would have repowered up! -- nm - Remlik Nov 4, 13:39 2
        
        I'm guessing you weren't a Mythology major. -- nm - David Nov 4, 13:46 1

      - you'll never make it past me and the grilled cheese & bacon in the primary, but ... - reluctantcynic Nov 4, 13:40 3
        
        You haven't had one of Diva's Grilled Breakfast Sammies. -- nm - Mel Profit - Votetastic! Nov 4, 13:42 2
        
        so we're starting with the dirty tricks already? - reluctantcynic Nov 4, 13:45 1

Gotta love Scott Adams -- (link) - oblique - I voted! Nov 4, 13:27
Tens of millions of dollars would have a positve fiscal impact on me and most of my neighbors within miles of here! -- nm - CrankYanker Nov 4, 13:26 4
