I already have this premonition that a few people are gonna say something along the lines of how "there's no point in voting in Texas because it's a red state and going to go to a Republican anyway."
Ok, this may have been the case for 2004 and Bush, but seriously...just because Texas is usually conservative doesn't mean it's gonna go red because of that. We had a Dem governor not too long ago. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I hope people vote and don't give what I said above as an excuse this time. ediit: this post sounds like i'm a democrat but i'm not! --------------------  |

Personally, I am not sure if I am going to vote because I haven't found a candidate who really I like. Almost all of the Democratic candidates have either turned their backs or acted indecisive on the topics that I care about. And Republicans...well, I don't feel like being told that I am immoral and don't have any rights (and then secretly be offered a blowjob in a bathroom).

I'm going to vote, always do in every single election.
And Texas is slowly turning back to blue. Blue in 2010 or 2012. We're almost there :-) I guess I can stick around in Texas for that. But we took back Dallas County last year, and Hays County as well. But Dallas is MUCH larger, so that's the one that the TDP likes to use. We're very close in Houston and San Antonio is already Blue. |

The only reason I fear that this state would go blue is because of small business owners. Giving out healthcare is great for SBOs because then they don't have to worry about it (their taxes will just be higher). That's probably the biggest draw for them. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
