- >>Rather than just voting for no one in the next election maybe it is
- time to start running queer candidates where there is no viable democratic
- or republican option. If the queer candidate gets 10% of the vote (enough
- to change the result of virtually any race) congress critters will have
- to start taking us more seriously.

- If Clinton himself goes back on it I will change my registration to republican
- so I can vote for Weld in the republican primaries. He is more pro gay rights
- than most democrats.<<
