What is Your Stake in Politics?

[quote]- I want to cancel out the vote of one specific coworker who is just wrong on most everything. He votes – so I have to vote to cancel his vote. This is a surprisingly strong motivation. Petty? Probably. But it gets me to the polls.[/quote]

This is just too funny (and spot on) not to get highlighted… It reminds me of the T-shirt that says,

For every animal you don’t eat, I will eat three!

[quote=enron_by_the_sea][quote=flu] Even if, rep’s manage to gain senate or house (highly unlikely), we have another 2 years of Obama to even things out with appropriate checks and balances…..
I feel we need some of those seats restored and balanced, as screwed up as some of those senators/representatives might be and as disgusting as some of those candidates might be….[/quote]

Flu, I see that you and I vote with the same philosophy. However, when you want to vote for the senator you might also want to think about who the president will be in 2012![/quote]

Fight today, worry about tomorrow later 🙂 The sad part is that I use to not care about politics…Then I started to after Bush(it)

[quote=flu] The person could be black/blue/purple/green/racist, anti-asian/fundamentalist/pornstar/or half dead wearing depend garments, so long as the person has a shot at defeating their Democrat counterpart. I could care less. [/quote]

That’s how people like Christine O’Donnell and Sarah Palin get into power.

With obstruction, you can kiss goodbye to progress and to an effective and coherent industrial/economic policy. As other nations advance their economic agendas, we’ll just stagnate.

In any race, I look at the specific race and I compare each candidate’s ideas. I vote for the best ideas.

I apologize in advance for following you (brian) from thread to thread with sarcasm…but you leave me no choice.

I vote purely on emotion! Anyone who says they want to help me I believe, and I have never heard of unintended consequences. I am incapable of reason and argument, so emotion all the way!
