    Why not? It can't get any worse, can it?

    That's what I'm thinking too kj with one BIG caveat or worry. As bad as the bozos are whom we elect there is a certain minimum amount of scrutiny and track records we can research. Random folks from random lottery picks? How dicey is that? Scary BUT what we got is very scary too and everyone knew exactly what and for whom they were voting. I suppose it couldn't hurt to try. Thank you for your reply! :)
