Yet another reason I like Mike. . . .

Ok here comes another of my political tirades. I promise this one wont be long because it's 3:30 a.m. and I'm getting a bit sleepy.

As you all know I support Huckabee for President in the 08 elections. Of all the candidates out there I feel he is the best choice for President. Do I agree with everything he did as governor of the state I call home? No of course not. . .I don't agree with everything Bush has done but I still consider him a great president (I realize I'm in the minority here).

Here is another reason why I support Huckabee for President. . . .

The man has manners and the guts to admit when he's wrong. If you've ever watched political campaign ads you know they are often negative ads directed at why other candidates are bad choices. Facts get twisted and turned to one persons advantage and make the other people look bad. So far Huckabee's ad's haven't done that even though some ads have attacked him directly. Today Huckabee was due to release his first negative ad against Mit Romey. I must say that slightly dissapointed me as I hate the mudslinging in politics. Thankfully Huckabee redeamed himself by pulling the ad and ordering it not to be run. On top of that he comitted to not run negative ads against Romney or anyone else for that matter at least unti after the caucuses.

Anyway I'm off to bed now Hope you all have a Happy New Year and don't forget to get out and vote!

If You Vote. . . . .

I'm sure that some of you are registered voters right? Well if you are a voter please think about what I'm writing about today.

If you vote PLEASE MAKE AN INFORMED VOTE!!!!!

How many times have you voted for someone just because you saw a campaign commercial that you liked about that candidate? How many times have you voted simply for a party?

I encourage you to do a little bit of research. If you plan on voting don't go to the polls uniformed. Take the time to research the candidates. Don't just look at their websites but look at things like blogs about the candidate both for and against. Look at their websites of course. Do a search and find out what kinds of bills this candidate has voted to support or not support in Congress. A candidates votes in Congress tells you where he or she really stands. If they are wishy washy in their votes then chances are they will be wishy washy in their campaign. Look for a candidate that CONSISTENTLY supports the issues that you believe in most. This is a democracy and it's all about what the majority wants. People think their vote doesn't matter but it does. People getting out and voting gives you a voice. However your voice doesn't have much of an effect if you don't vote in an informed manner!

Ok that's my lil soap box for the day.

Have great day!
