7. Demagoguery prevailed
The only thing this election proved is if one faction floods the media with planted, one-sided, fabricated allegations, a lot of people including far too many "liberals" will believe it.

It is becoming increasingly obvious that liberals are just as bad as conservatives in that regard.

Here's a question to ask. Why did 100,000+ people who obviously don't usually vote in Sierra Club elections all vote for the same five people, without varying their votes at all to vote for other good people, like, say, Ed Dobson? What that tells me is that they cast an uninformed vote, had no idea who to vote for, and were being blindly led by MoveOn or Groundswell. That disgusts me.
