Party Politics

I procrastinated too long on sending out Christmas cards but the deeds are done and the deadline has been met.

I’ve held off long enough, but I finally mailed off a payment toward my Property Tax bill in time enough to make the December 31 due date.

I have also met another deadline of December 31. I have joined the forced of the majority of Floridians and changed my party affiliation to Republican. I am now prepared to cast a vote in the Primary Election on January 29 for the candidate I feel could possibly be best suited to run against whichever Democrat gets the nod.

Democratic presidential contenders seem to be pretty much of the same caliber. It’s the Republican candidates that seem to have diversity in choice.

I have no doubt each political party will get some of my votes. Regardless who wins any elected office, my vote will be more about demographics to pollsters. Just as the candidates play games with our hopes and their promises, prior to Election Day, November 13, 2008, I will be a registered Independent. Let that be another statistic for them to ponder.
