M. Charry: Don't Vote or Die
Maybe newspaper competition in Washington is a good thing. Perhaps we need an ugly-looking, unabashedly partisan cult-funded sh*trag to counterbalance the sometimes-lazy but generally-respectable Post.
But while we may benefit from alternate viewpoints on taxes, social security reform and whether or not an elderly South Korean criminal is in fact the messiah, I'm not sure we need to have a reflexive yes-no argument on every single issue.
Like when Mona Charen starts telling some people not to vote because they're too dumb to make a good choice.
And I don't think she means these people, because the're useful idiots.
So get out and vote, even if you have to trample a middle-aged right-wing blowhard wrech with a pantsuit and a colander-cut to get to your polling place.
