We keep re-electing them because we’re a bit like Hamlet who’d “rather bear the ills we have, than fly to others we know not of..” Now we have the opportunity to elect someone different and we’re constantly bombarded by naysayers who fear change, even though they supposedly voted for it last time.
Well, I’m getting old now and may not be around for many more elections— perhaps not even the next one. But if I do get to vote I think I’ll vote to upset the apple-cart and send those “ills” scrambling for their lives. They’ve managed to screw up this once great country so badly that I doubt it can be unscrewed by anything less than a national catastrophe. On the off-chance I’m wrong, I’ll vote to let Sarah try to straighten theings out. If I’m really wrong and she turns out as badly as the liberal pundits believe, then she can serve as the ‘national catastrophe.’
So true. The old “devil we know rather than the devil we dont know”. I am with you. I dont know if I will be here for the next election. If I am, I hope we come up with some other names than the ones being floated around right now. Makes one want to weep.
