Don't Be That Guy

Vote.

If you live in a state like I do (New York) where the decision is likely already made it can be very disheartening to waste your time voting.  New York has voted Democrat for the past few decades (Kerry beat bush by over 18% in 2004).

The fact of the matter is, you really don’t know if your vote is going to count for much or not.  It could come down to a few hundred votes.  If that happens do you really want to be the guy sitting there thinking

“man I wish I voted”

Remember, your vote can’t count unless you give it.

Some Entertainment to ease the pain regardless of which side you sit on:

Ron Paul

I haven’t been paying much attention to the Republicans until recently. This is mostly the media’s fault and I’ll admit I’ve been suckered in. I used to be a Joe Biden advocate because I thought he was the only worthwhile Candidate. About a week ago, however; I started paying attention to Ron Paul and I’ve since changed my stance. Take a look at the clip from Comedy Central’s New Daily Show website below.

It makes me sick that this election will most likely be decided during the primaries and we’ll end up with either Obama or Hillary. I blame the Media. Give some attention to the other (worthwhile) candidates.

The best election we could hope for, I think, would be a Joe Biden vs Ron Paul election. If that were the case and both were given the opportunity to present their stances the results wouldn’t be obvious to me. I’d have to seriously weigh the pros and cons before making a decision and thats the way it should be.
