Getting in the Ring

Perry's refusal to debate is all swagger, no sweat.

Its good to know that one has been honored the title of becoming governor of a certain state. There is certain requirement that one should pursue with the benefit of. If not, why suppose to claim an unaccomplished title. According to Perrys refusal to debate is all swagger, no sweat.  But Libertarians see him as running away from the real challenge. "He seems to think that he owns our vote and that we're being disloyal by not supporting him." Perry arguably hasn't faced a tough election since his 1998 knockout of John Sharp to become lieutenant governor. Promoted to the Governor's Man­sion in 2000 when George W. Bush won the presidency, he won his first real election in 2002 when Dem challenger and Laredo oil man Tony Sanchez was less Cinderella Man, older fashioned palooka.

Does a vote actually matter?

Completely Lost

I totally agree with you on the fact that regarless ones opinion any politician can lie and promise you the moon, tell you they're going to do one thing then do the complete opposite. And i believe poitics should only interest those who are involved beacause what is the use of voting if you have no clue of what or who your voting for, like you mentioned, "is it best to make an uneducated vote or to simply not vote at all?" Many people believe that by voting that the vote will make a "difference" yes, in some aspect but whats the use if your not going to follow up and fully support whatever or whoever it is your voting for? Therefore i see a vote senselesss if your not going to continue on supporting that inactment.
