When clearly, looking at the past 6 years...the war on Iraq...the attack on our Constitution....the huge deficits....the inaction on the minimum wage....the growing ranks of the poor and growing disparity between the upper class and the middle and lower classes....the rise in Hate in America....the obvious and unashamed corruption in Congress......tacking internet gambling to Port Security bills....the lack of preparation for disasters (terrorist and manmade) over the last 5 years despite the enormous growth of government....the interference of government in our private lives...
How can people still say, "It doesn't matter who wins" when so clearly, so obviously...it DOES matter!

Right now only republicans are saying that both parties are the same. It's the only way they can make Republican's look good.

Do you truly believe all this lying, misdirection, mismanagement and deciet was created over the last 6 years alone? This masterpiece took almost 180 years to create. It does not matter, things swill go on as usual and sadly, there is little any of us can do.
Misguided people believe that only "their" candidate is the one true saviour of this society and the fact is...they are professional politicians. This is what they do for a living. These are the same pin necks who in high school got wedgies and ran for class Prez to be someone important. They don't do this because of a genuine desire to be of service, they do it for the power, wealth and fame. Period.
I used to believe ...I really did. Now I am more realistic about politics and understand what drives it. Greed. For power, wealth and fame. That is all...nothing else to see here. Move along...

These are the things that matter!
That we bring home young Americans sacrificing life and limb in a god-forsaken sand pit half way around the world that their own citizens don't care if it survives or not!
That we allow scientific medical research decide what is possible for human biological health and not religious fear, intolerance and hysteria!
That we hold every single politician accountable for every decision they make and throw the bums out when they don't do the right thing!
That we never forget that Congress works for us and not the other way around. Congress has done nothing to support American citizens in the last two years. It is time for a change!
I hope you and everyone who reads this takes the time to vote this coming Tuesday!
God Bless all American citizens!

It does not matter who wins . All politicians are cut from the same mold, money and privelage.You have to be accepted in these circles to even compete ,any modern day war that has been fought has been engineered by corporations , we are merely pawns in a greater game , if any of you have read the protacols of the learned elders of zion should understand that this is all a show and the two party system is a joke, every facet of your life is engineered and directed by a much larger chain of events it does not matter who wins because we have allready lost, if the government waged war on it's own citizens what would you do to stop it? think carefully my friend , when they send troops to a foriegn land to fight that, is what they are doing . who in their right mind would want to go to a foreign country to die..........I do not see any politicians ,their children or any of the sort dying for this country , they use your patriotism against you . support the troops ? in an illegal millitary action ?
go ahead and put your yellow ribbon on your car , and wat for the depleted uranium data to filter down in 10 years -hello america

It dose not matter because you will be saying the same dam thing about the other party four years down the road, America is split right down the middle and never will it's train meet. I can not believe the mentality between the north and the south, the American civil war has never really had an end has it.

People say it doesn't matter because most people, you being a prime case in point, get the facts wrong. With such misinformation, how can you be expected to vote responcibly? Since you aren't voting based on reality, it is just a snowballs chance that the majority of votes cast will actually accomplish what the caster thinks they will. For most people as "informed" as you seem to be, it is like trying to buy a good book based on how the color of the font smells.

Because the type of person who runs for office isn't always the type of person you want as Pastor of your church. And the reality of the multiple problems facing our country often have difficult solutions that no elected official wants to recommend because they know its a losing proposition for them in November.
I mean, can you imagine voting for a man who says that we need to raise taxes across the board, abolish individual health insurance and have a basic comprehensive national health care with add-ons on a buy in basis, that foreign aid be predicated on what we get back, and minimal housing for the needy be built in small scale areas. Yeah, those would sell, (not) but thats only part of whats needed.

Because the best the dems can do with a win is gridlock.
This is not a win for America.
