120, that's just the point

whatever choice they make, you're gonna get it too. Shit like this, it may feel like you're "just doing what you can", "trying to give them a bigger perspective", whatever. It's counterproductive. If what you really want is no more Bush, find more constructive ways to go about it. The urge to get Bush out is commendable, but a letter-writing campaign to undecideds in Ohio is not smart. It makes the Guardian and its readers, who I'm sure fancy themselves relatively educated, look like a bunch of dilettantes. I generally like the Guardian, and agree with its political views much moreso than I do the mainstream here. But this is just straight foolish.

Go 'head and wash your hands of Americans and their pettiness though.
