10. I wonder why

Every election is as important as another in today's environment.
Not voting because it's a primary or it's an off-year election is unacceptable.
The media is largely responsible, but can't be blamed entirely.
People need to be made to feel it is important to vote in every election. The republicraps are much more aware of the importance of off-year elections than democrats. The off-year elections are a major reason we have so many republicrap administrations around the country. If as many people voted in the mid-terms that voted in the presidential elections.... boy, the repulicraps would be in a world of hurt.
So, the problem we face is, how do we inspire the left to get out there and vote?
