General Election Candidates 2010

Katherine Said:

Isn't this why people don't really trust either major U.S. political party?? They're all corporate whores?

We Answered:

This is the moment when you become an adult. It's the realization you're getting screwed. You think you can enlighten people if you take a stand or just explain it. You vote, write letters and start seeing yourself as part of society with all of the rights that come with it. Then the day comes when you start to see you are the last to know. Everyone else knows that the deck is stacked and "1 person, 1 vote" is kind of hollow when you have an electoral college. Next are more letters to your representatives but these are hostile. You tell them they are dirty bastards and you know what they're up to. That's where I am now. One of my reps is Mary Landrieu, a democrat whose father was mayor of New Orleans. My head is spinning and it's over health care. I'm obviously not happy with her, but whichever side you're on, it's unethical to accept over a million in contributions from insurance and pharmaceuticals and act like you're unbiased. The industry doesn't throw money at a candidate because they think she's cute. Quid pro quot. They give you money to make more money off of your legislation. There's not a damn thing you can do but trade them in for another crook. It's futile.

This is a hard one - Who does the Tea Party movement worry most - the Democrats or the Elitist Republicans?

We Answered:

The tea party movement worries corrupt politicians
The tea party movement worries career politicians
The tea party movement worries politicians that have NOT represented the Will of the People that voted them in.....so guess what......We are voting them O-U-T.
Got to Love America when she decides to hold on to her FREEDOM!
(sad there are districts that are so corrupt and so dependent on govt hand-outs that they knowingly vote corrupt politicians in)
(even had a person that is a govt depending/food stamp receiving/govt service 100%person tell me today that obama is getting waaaaaay too much into their business!! I just had to laugh!!)
