Republican, Democrat, does it matter? Do you really believe that one is for "the people" and the other is not? I'm not fooled. They're both out for themselves, and voters are just a casualty of war. We’re left with choosing the lesser of two evils (from our own perspective) – instead of supporting one candidate or the other. Arnel has a great link to a Lou Dobbs article which hits the nail on the head.
It will continue to be that way until we show them that the voters have control of the country, by voting for all Independents. The problem is that in the current climate an Independent can’t get enough support to make a viable run. That leaves voters not wanting to “waste” their vote on a lost cause. So, people vote for the candidate that is on the “right”, or should I say “correct”, side of the important issues. Of course, everyone has their own views on what the important issues are.
I’ll cast my vote tomorrow based on the “important issues” again. I can’t remember the last time I was excited about, or at least interested in, a candidate seeking office. Is it too much to ask for a competent, morally sound, upright candidate to run for office? Maybe one day…maybe.
