Inertia in politics
Got my usual exposure to bumper stickers while out on the bike, vote for this or that or who, and came across a bemusing side-effect of living in a state with a lot of older cars. Most "cause" bumper stickers use shorthand -- "Vote NO on 1" or "Vote YES on 2" -- but you can't really tell if that refers to the ballot proposition in the current campaign, or one from three elections back . . .
