3. Question.
Edited on Sat Feb-02-08 01:53 PM by katsy
And it's not meant to be snarky.

Why "believe"? I understand supporting or not supporting a candidate.

Maybe I'm jaded but, why is it necessary to fall in love with candidates?

Any candidate that comes this far in a presidential race is a political animal. That's why I can't get all weepy and crazy when bad stuff comes out about our candidates. For me, heroes are not found in the political arena or we'd have a functional country, a respected constitution, we'd be honoring treaties, equality, etc. You know... we wouldn't be a third world country but for these bastards.

Until recently I was and Edwards supporter and am a listener now. I'm listening for policy positions and have not slammed either Senator Clinton or Senator Obama in GD Primaries.
