Fence sitter or.... left only or.... right only?

Question

Is voting only political lines effective and productive?

I guess I would rather have ALL of the facts and determine which is right! .....But that's just me!

You?

Answer 1

Kelly, both political parties suck right now. It's always the lesser of two evils. I vote for the person that seems more competent, more capable, in case something important comes up. Needless to say, that was not Bush in the past two elections.

But, if I had a choice between, say, Al Sharpton and John McCain -- it would have to be McCain.

But, you are right to be on the fence. What you might be sensing is that both parties are basically the same -- two different factions of the same corporatist country club. Or, maybe it's some other aspect that turns you off.

Answer 2

I vote for the right person, no matter what party affiliation, even though I am a registered republican. I was a democrat for many years, but switched parties during the Bill and Monica Lewinsky debacle, along with my congressional baffoon.

Answer 3

I used to believe in that, still do ina way.. but usually what happens is one group says a lot of things you know will destroy your country... so you side with its opposite party, because voting independent would be a wasted vote. Thats when i became Republican.

Answer 4

I think that the most important thing is the values of the person you are voting for.

Answer 5

I'm with you. It depends on the issue and the candidate. I tend to vote slightly right of center of most issues...but overall, I'm probably smack dab in the middle.

Answer 6

When in doubt, vote for the guy who won't send your children to die in senseless wars (sound familiar?)

Answer 7

And rely even more so on pathetic voters.
