I like the idea of AV, but I don't see it happening. It would threaten the power monopoly both major political parties have here. Also, we have a nasty habit of looking at what works in Europe but saying "Screw it! I'm doing things my way!" Which wouldn't be so annoying, except that 'my way' usually winds up being worse.
