text: This qoute might be the think that I agree with the most.  At the same source as last time but this time in one paragragh down.  It says "the single best argument agianst the electoral college is what we might call the disaster factor.  The american people should consider themselves lucky that the 2000 fiasco was the biggest election crisis in a century; the system allows for much worse."  Now just remeber when I said who elects those people anyway, well I did some reading and it said that the state legislature are technically responsible for picking electors, but the electors can always defy the will of the people.
