Maybe Kos has some strings with the big guy to get this going, because boy do we need it! I don't care if it's Instant Runoff Voting(IRV) or Approval Voting or an improved version of a "top two primary" or the use of 3-seated state assembly elections (not unlike what Senator Barack Obama wanted to bring back to Illinois in 2001). What matters most is that we switch our brains from a rule-taker to a rule-maker mentality and diversify our electoral rules! It'd be best to focus on state and local elections first, but those elections can positively effect our national elections and so every bit helps.
I may not get my wish this year for Christmas, but I expect to see a lot happen in the US in terms of electoral reform in the coming six years.

ps,
this'll be my last post at Daily Kos for a while...
I need to refocus on other aspects of my life and simply abide until momentum builds for my main area of advocacy, strategic election reform
pps, I'd also like my two front teeth back!!
