On: The Republican Party has an API

> I hope the Democrats will follow suit, or that Congress will put up a general API.

The worst thing would be if the Dems followed suit, but using a different API. Yuck.

It'd be hilarious for the two to use the same API, then patent it so that the Libertarians couldn't use it.

Just to piss them off :-)

The great thing about APIs is if you don't like them you can wait two weeks and somebody will put them in a wrapper for you.
