How would Hunter S. Thompson vote?

Well, why don't you take a look at his latest article in Rolling Stone? Can you picture Duke voting for Ralph Nader in 2000? It's a difficult mental image to bring up in my head. Of course seeing Kerry going duck hunting was also somewhat surreal. Not to mention almost anything Cheney does. Or Rumsfeld says. Heck, the whole theater of cruelty lot of them.

Hunter S. Thompson - today he joins the timeless ranks - no more marginalization - no more aging poet - no more inept rambling of unformed madness - his suicide was no cowardly act - but a calculated decision to stop the erosion of age and the future decay of this legacy - time is a master and needs to be dealt with - his place as iconic madman will now transcends the pains of withered old man - perhaps there is more to the story than meets the eye - the withered old body giving way to a slow decay and his glimpse into the void carried by a silver bullet seemed a valid exit strategy in the classic style of Steadman pen and ink-
