| As the electorate, it is our fault, since we keep sending these clowns back term after term. Elections often end up being decided based on who has the best hair, who is the best speaker, or who runs the slickest ads. And don't even get me started on the religion issue. There is a certain segment of the population who will automatically vote for whoever most loudly proclaims that they're more "Christian" than the other guy, never mind the fact that these folks often seem to be the biggest hypocrites out there.
The whole system stinks, from the lifetime politicians in Washington and various state capitals to the demagogues playing on people's emotions to the assorted sheep and fools who vote based on little more than who has the best smile. |
