Today is the big day. Today is the day when we decide which gang we will pay protection money to. Because no matter who wins it will cost us, the taxpayers money is the day when the American people will not make an intelligent decision. Their decisions are based on sensory preception.
Who is the loudest, who is the better looking, who has the right color and who will give me more. But list can go on and on to list what effects the outcome of an election. Being the most qualified has absolutely no role whatsoever.
There are hard core party members, democrats and republicans who will always vote the party line even if Bozo the Clown would run for president. Then there are the ones who would look at qualifications. My uncle used to tell me that at each election he voted for the opposing party's candidate because he believed that change was good. This last is not a bad way of thinking.
I am sure there are candidates who are shaking in their boots at the prospect of losing and at the prospect of losing their prestigious positions. I'm sure it was nice to walk around and pull rank by saying I am a member of congress. But as the saying goes "the higher they are the harder they fall"!
At the time of this writing, morning hours, we didn't vote, yet. We plan to go later.
