Candidate Rant

I don't have a favorite political candidate, when I vote--which I do in midterm and presidential elections--I attempt to find the lesser of the two evil and vote for that candidate. When I hear them talk they, glaze over the issues that I find important and, throw verbal stones at their opponents. They accuse their opponents of taking bribes money from special interest or walking their party's line, when they, themselves, are guilty of the same sin. They claim to work for unity, but the only time they do is when the issue is of minor importance in their party's agenda.


I hear their rhetoric of reform, of carrying about the earth, of carrying about immigrants, of overhauling the Medicare and Medicaid systems, and bringing down medical cost. I, also, know that many of them are taking kickbacks from Big Pharma or any other special interest group that is willing to pay them for their vote by pumping money into their campaigns. As the campaign season advances the candidates' bullying of their opponents wax, while they present themselves with blue ribbons for fooling their constituents.
