Since when did stating a fact become "seeing things as a dastardly GOP plot".
I thought you were done with broad-stroking and putting words in people's mouths.
The GOP legislature in Texas has been a criminal organization since their remap in 1990 and the way they hunted down Democratic lawmakers.
There's a reason Texas is at the top of the DOJ's list for remaps.
A 27-9 remap in 2010 with only a 55-45 advantage is certainly egregious.
Nope. I've voted for Libertarian Candidates several times.
Straight tickett. I often find that the democrat candidate is too far left. The left are crazy, the right would be liberals 50 years ago. The country itself is too far left, so im pretty much forced to vote straight ticket to find a candidate even close to my values.
Be honest.
I've never had a straight-ticket ballot in my life. My ballots are always split, based on issues and individuals, not political parties... both the DNC and the GOP suck. That does in no way mean that the people who call themselves democrats or republicans suck; it's the political party machine I'm talking about. These They don't give a fat flying fig about the country; they only care about raising money and keeping/getting power. A pox on them both.
Be honest. If you've never voted for someone from the "other" party (or you've done it so infrequently that it pretty much doesn't matter, like you can think of that one time 30 years ago that you did, etc.), you are a straight ticket voter and just own it. You're hardly alone. The majority of voters vote a straight Democrat ticket where I live and, in other Texas cities, most vote a straight Republican ticket. In fact, it's funny. Where I live, the GOP laments that kind of voting (which I agree with) but promotes it anywhere Repubs are the majority...but I digress. If you're constantly lamenting the other side as being "cold hearted" or the "empty headed", why should there be a reluctance to admit that you'd never cast your vote for someone you percieve that way? So just be real.
getting the poll together
Honesty fail.
At this point of my life I am voting straight GOP. I've lived through 2 Democratic Presidents and 1 Republican and the Democrats in my opinion have done far more damage to this nation than the Republican. I could not in good conscious be a part of a group that subjects another Democrat onto this nation.
