Scary isn't it.
But, I say voting is still important because of the "imagine how much worse it could be" argument. I'd take four years of Hillary and her "centrist" if not triangulation path over four years of any R out there. I mean imagine four years under Huckabee and his inability to sep. church and state
So, that is why it is important.
I am just saying that people who think that electing Obama will result in huge changes are IMO misguided. Again, why would Obama have all those lobbyist working on his campaign? The answer is he will be beholden to them regardless of whether he took money from them.
