So who the hell am I supposed to vote for?
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008
I'm in a tough position here. I just don't know what I should do about the upcoming presidential election. One thing I do know is that John McCain is a fucking mistake. As Bill Maher put it John McCain is "... more wrong track ..." and I am inclined to agree with that.
However, I'm not particularly impressed with Hillary Clinton, she is about as corporate a democrat as you can get, but I suppose that doesn't really matter since, barring some kind of miracle, she is mathematically out of the running for the nomination.
I'm also not really impressed with Barrack Obama. Sure he's very "inspirational" and he has an enthusiastic following, but I've not heard anything from ANY of the candidates that sounds like a real plan. Just sound bites along the lines of "I have a comprehensive plan." Okay, so what is it?
I will tell you someone that I was very impressed with. Dennis Kucinich. Saying that I am impressed by a politician? That's a big deal to me. He is the one I want to vote for. Several times over, I saw him on television programs and during the course of the discussion his approach was, here's the problem and this is how we go about fixing it. He didn't speak in vagaries or simply spout platitudes. These kinds of things are why he was denied an opportunity to participate in the televised debates. Not because he would have "muddied the water" or any bullshit like that. He was denied because he would have made fools of both Clinton and Obama on national television. Unfortunately, since they are the ones with hundreds of millions of dollars to throw around, they got a free pass on those.
So what do I do?
Do I just write in Kucinich? Do I sit this one out? Or do I have to choose, again, between the lesser of two evils? Do I move to another country?
Fuck.

party split?
It's interesting that many of us feel this way, and yet, there is no move whatsoever to change the political system, so things aren't so bi-partisan. I don't want to feel like I shouldn't vote if my candidate isn't chosen, and yet, I do - or, like you said, it's the lesser of two evils. Ughh.
