Ugh ugh ugh

House Republicans elect Boehner as leader - Yahoo! News

My comment on this story is not about the main topic, but instead a minor detail:

Boehner had 122 votes to Blunt's 109. Shadegg dropped out after a first ballot loss.

Freaking politicians with their freaking 2-party system. When they want a fair election they hold multiple ballots, or have a "ranked ballot" so they can vote for who they want to.

But when it's time for their own elections, they force "plurality wins". How many people voted for GWB in the last election only to make sure Kerry didn't win?

I think politicians really don't care all that much if you vote Republican or Democrat, as long as you vote Republican or Democrat. If only more people would understand this!

Squashing anger for now.... stupid politicians.
