Jealousy
Today...
I kind of wish I lived in Virginia, so I could vote for Jim Webb against the vile George Allen.
I kind of wish I lived in the 4th District in Colorado, so I could vote for Angie Paccione against the hateful Marilyn Musgrave.
I kind of wish I lived in Pennsylvania, so I could vote for Bob Casey against the noxious Rick Santorum.
I kind of wish I lived in Connecticut, so I could vote for Ned Lamont against the craven Joe Lieberman.
Sure, I get to vote for Deval Patrick, and against the intelligence-insulting campaign style of Kerry Healey. And I get to make my perfunctory votes for Michael Capuano and Ted Kennedy. I can and will try to throw a monkey wrench by voting Jill Stein for Secretary of State. And I get to make my last-second decision whether I'm going to vote for (and spite the deceptive liquor store cabal) or against (to stick it to the woe-is-us big supermarket chains) the wine question.
But I can't help wish my role in the high stakes was a little larger.

as bob kerry, that fine democratic former senator from nebraska, once said,
"Santorum, that's Latin for 'asshole'"
word, bob. word.
