Isn't Mitt Rmoney Right About The Election.....

As a voter - I'm going to vote for the person that does right by me or that I believe will do right by me. I'd be a fool to vote for a person that if elected would put me in a worse situation - wouldn't I?

Isn't that what all the campaigning is about? They campaign to tell us what they did for us or what they are going to do for us. Again - as a voter - I'm going to vote for the person that has either done the most for me or will do the most for me.

I think about my Congressman. Every quarter I get letters or e-mails from him that tell me all he's done for me in the last quarter. The money that he brought into the district to fix roads or the business he help get into my district that created jobs, etc. He's telling me this because he wants me to know that he's done things for me and therefore I should vote for him so he can continue to do things for me.

That is the basis of all campaigns and what all people running for office run on.

So if Rmoney says that people voted for PBO because of the things he's done for them (he calls them gifts) well - he's right.

Now why does Mr. Rmoney think I would vote for him if I know that everything he stands for, everything he's running on - is contrary to what would be good for me.

This guy is an idiot. He should get the message - if he wants people to vote for him - he's got to tell them what he'd do for them - not what he is going to take away from them and give to the 1% er's.

Don't you know how long it's taken the right wing to brainwash its minions into voting against their own interests?
