Epidemic Distrust Leads to Voting

A new Reuters poll says 61% of Americans have lost trust in government and institutions over the last four years. At the same time record numbers of voters (of all ages) are registering to participate in the 2004 national election. Is it possible that this epidemic of distrust is creating inspired citizens? Here at VoterVirgin, we would rather think voters are inspired by a smile, but whatever gets you to the polls is alright too.
