“I don’t think the Dems are such a “shoe-in” when the Dem controlled Congress has such horribly low ratings”

Thank God for that, but MSM won’t hammer that point home, unfortunately!

The typical news cast, national or local seems to be basically the same, day in and day out. Once in a while a few names might change, but their agenda and formula don’t vary that much. To me, it seems like they only really push their picks, and I wonder if those people would really need to raise that much money with all the news exposure they get. It doesn’t seem right.

I’m kind of ignorant on politics compared to most of the people here, I’m sure. I am trying to learn and educate myself though. I never voted until I got married, then I thought I’d better be responsible about it and try to learn more about the decisions I make. Being married and having kids turned everything around. I was kind of a sheeple until then.

“..but MSM won’t hammer that point home, unfortunately!..”

But despite MSM, the people still give the Dem-controlled Congress a low poll #. Isn’t that hopeful, though?

And you and I can help bring out the truth by writing even a short letter to the editor to our hometown newspaper (or even a national newspaper, but they get countless letters).

Also, welcome to politics, and I can understand how your children got you interested, because politics affect so many things in our life (unfortunately too much).
