Reply #75: First, I always vote.

Second, I always vote a straight Democratic ticket because I know we have to have the majority. Of course, I would like every Democrat who is elected to stand up for the Democratic party platform, but I have to be realistic and realize that some take issue with at least one item on that platform. I have to hope that there will always be enough Democratic votes to win the Democratic agenda.

Third, if I didn't vote for a Democratic, who would I vote for? I would leave the voting booth gagging if I ever voted for a repub and I couldn't just skip over one candidate.

If we are going to get this country straightened out, we have to vote and always keep our numbers higher in the Congress and the Senate.
