Fuck politics. I'm not voting. When you vote you are puting your name on someone. Can't do it.

We had this discussion, didn't we?

I'll still probably vote. But I won't do so with high expectations, like that my vote was going to count or something. Lesser of two evils, every time.

I have stronger feeling now. With the truth in front of you how can I say I'm going back any of these fellows or woman.

You don't endorse %100 when you vote. blankphotog February 26 2008, 15:55:11 UTC
That's not the way it works. I can't %100 endorse anyone, because no one is perfect. All you are doing is expressing your preference. When the people in charge look at how many people don't vote, they don't think, "Oh no, we must be doing a horrible job," they think, "Wow people sure don't care, do they?" When you don't vote, that's the complicity of silence. Of course it doesn't make much difference, but it's a minimal civic duty.
