Tom asked:
Even given the fact that trying to implement most of their platform, would take 8 years to enact, does that mean that people shouldn't at least give them a try who believe in what they are advocating?
Tom,

I believe that would be a given, no? The point I was making was that too many people (aka: evan-jelly-cals, yes and others) support candidates simply because they claim to be a "Christian" or based upon the candidate's stand on one single issue, e.g., pro-life, anti-gay, etc. And, these ultra right-wing "Moral Majority" type candidates generally haven't a clue as to how a town is run, never mind and entire country. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rolleyes2.gif" alt="" />

So, if a party has a sound platform; one with which you find acceptable, and one that could be feasibly implemented, and the candidates are qualifed for the office to some degree, then why not vote for them? That's what the entire democratic process is all about. It's not like it is here in Canada! [Linked Image]
