Do you feel that the coming elections, is more of a choice of whose not the worse, rather than whose the best?

Answer 1

Isn't that the case with every election??

Answer 2

The coming elections aren't a "choice" at all. It seems politicians are appointed now, and not choosen.

The point about it being between whose the worse of the two parties, that is sadly true. I'd suggest voting a third party just for that exact reason; that I don't have to endorse the lesser of two evils.

Answer 3

This is the off year, "Mid-Term", I live in California, so I really don't bother voting for the national stage, "Boxer-Fienstien", because the vote in my area cannot and never will compete with SF-LA. So why bother, yet my community lives better and richer lives that SF-LA, except for the wealthier few (who make themselves feel better by throwing bones at the poor). We have an extremely lower crime, better schools, better housing prices, better groceries prices, more community activities for the kids, better neighbors, I even know their names and yet I can got to and enjoy the big city for the weekend, then come home and relax.

Yeah, let them have "Boxer-Fienstien", I have a backyard, two dogs, three kids, one big monstrosity of an SUV to pull the Toy-Hauler w/ATV's or the boat (depends on the time of year!), a pick-up truck to tear up the pristine desert nobody visits and a lets got to the city sedan (American Made ?)

So do I care about "Mid-Term" elections He_ _ No!, Now presidential, oh yeah, a democrat would kill my 401K investments.

And oh, by the way, growing up I had beef liver 2-3 times a week, cheapest meat my dad could by, we were poor. Now he and my mom live in my 2 bedroom, 1020sf, pool house, free of charge, and they have free access to my 3200sf home any time they want.

SO, "BOXER-FEEBLESTIEN" can have LA-SF, just stay the hell out of my area!

Answer 4

I can only recall one presidential election where I voted for who I thought was best. It seems that the parties are always putting up someone who can win, not who is going to be the best. You see they do not care about the best, the only care about being in CONTROL of america. Have you heard pelosi's talks of late?

In the local elections I have seen more where I thought they were best but that was quite awhile ago. When Clinton was elected the whole thing seemed to get screwed up.

I used to vote for the best person and after clinton I found that the person ALWAYS votes with the party, so now I have selected a party that professes to represent my agenda and I vote straight party.

What happened? How did Clinton turn this country into a partisan wasteland?

I am really disgusted by the whole mess, by the lack of personal responsibility in politics and in particular by the Democrats who appear to have no morals when it comes to gaining control of the country. Anytime someone trys that hard and will stoop to those low levels to have the power, it scares me, the dems scare me. They are not for america they are for themselves and screw you if you get in the way.

Answer 5

Papa Bear my gut feeling is to find out who will best serve their constituents on the issues that are most important to them, and who has the best shot at getting those issues resolved. I feel that the best person for the job should be elected regardless of their party affiliation.

Answer 6

No, not if you understand the real issues and the parties stance on the issues. By the way, don't bring religion into politics. It does not belong there.

Answer 7

Well history has taught us that the liberals are scum. They care nothing about this nation, unborn children, terrorism, or anything else that is right.

Answer 8

It depends on the people not with running candidates be wise voters don't vote them if they cant do nothing in their terms.

Answer 9

To me, it's a choice of whether I want Nancy Pelosi to be in charge or not, and the answer is not.

Answer 10

I always vote for the lesser of the two weavils.
