From bigmanwithaplan's article from Eisenhower's son:
| quote: | | Now more than ever, we voters will have to make cool judgments, unencumbered by habits of the past. Experts tell us that we tend to vote as our parents did or as we "always have." We remained loyal to party labels. We cannot afford that luxury in the election of 2004. There are times when we must break with the past, and I believe this is one of them. |
I think this mentality might actually begin to show up as of this election... what with the HUGE rise in new voter registration and especially YOUNG voter registration. I hope it means people are starting to take a stand and think for themselves. The worst thing is when people vote for a party, and not a candidate!
