Your local politics are your business. I do not get involved in it. Not even in my own state, unless it involves Arkansas constitutional changes or ordinances. All the local polititicos here are democrats. I do not even go to the polls, since I will not cross party lines.

So by your own admission you look to the national government to solve your needs instead of getting involved at the local and state level. Interesting considering that the men who founded this nation had specific limited responsibilities for the national government, expecting almost all, if not all, issues to be handled by local or state governments. Kind of a new standard or form of government from what the Founders had in mind originally isn't it? Wait a minute, that would be liberal thinking and not conservative

BTW, Arkansas 'politicos', as you put it, are Democrats for an important reason, whether or not they are liberal or conservative. What's happened is that the Democratic party has used that against the locals to get men like Clinton elected

Now you are pissin me off! I told you that I do not vote in local elections because I will not cross party lines. If there are no republican candidates, I cannot vote in the primaries unless I change to a democrat. I do vote for or against local law changes and the like, as I said!

As to the great things that democraps do, it is illegal in this state to drive in the rain with the with your lights off. Thousands of people are ticketed for not wearing seat belts! A local dem is trying to pass a law that would give you jail time for hitting or misteating your dog! Plus a fine in the 6 figure category.

Yah, sure! Local democraps do great things!
