At some point, will candidates please stop saying unreasonable things? If you’re going to suggest a policy change, do not pull it out of the air- make sure it can be implemented. It just makes you sound ridiculous.
Daily Gazette,
Thanks for doing this. I was about to vote when I reaized that I did not really know what all the candidates stood for. The 15mins or so I spent informing myself was well worth it.
what?? disproportionate promises make politics what it IS!
who remembers obama’s speech from 2 weeks ago? “Then we’re going to the countryside, then we’re storming DC, then we’re hitting the cities.” Woah dude, let’s take a break from those Rockstars.
