when i was a teenager i was really into politics and all. but now, even though i support nader, part of me doesnt feel like voting. im getting to the point where i just dont care anymore. maybe its not 'undecided' since i think they all suck. but i as i get older i see things meaning less and less. the abortion issue will probably be debated forever, so why does my opinion matter? where i stand on energy is also pointless, cause i cant attach an solar panel on my car, so im stuck with what toyota or ford releases.
i just wanna listen to music and sleep, and care less about all the other crap that i cant really change anyways. when i sit down and really think about it. $4 a gallon gas, tanking economy, lousy president. thats really nothing. i had dinner today and yesterday and the day before. i have a bed in a house that isnt made of mud and plywood. so things really arent that bad in this country. and i wont listen to the doomsayers saying we'll end up like that. no matter how bad things get i dont think we're heading for 3rd world status.
so at the end of the day politics dont matter much to me.
i guess that's a "half empty, half full" thing. I see what your saying, but I always think there's always a way to make things better.
My response - if you are undecided, maybe look at the most important issue right now - IMO the economy - pick the person who you think can handle this problem better. I'm sure we would all like to keep our houses, and our jobs.

i say obama should use this as his new campaign slogan.
