Sweet Southern Belle

I have very strong political beliefs but I honestly have a hard time understanding why people get so nasty around election time. The truth is, each of us vote for the candidate that we believe will benefit us the most and move the country in the direction we believe is best. I know that what I think is best isn’t what everyone else in America believes and that’s ok. Hey, that’s what democracy and freedom are all about. I’m thankful that we live in a country where we can have different political viewpoints. Politics in this country tend to swing back and forth. A very left winged candidate will take office and then a right and so on.  So, if you’re not on the “team” that wins this time…. your turn will come. Many feel like we’ve just ended a phase of horrible years and many believe that the horrible years are ahead. What I don’t understand are personal attacks on the character of the “other” party. I expect this from politicians but it’s really crazy to me when others do this. I’m just sooo thankful we only have a few more days to listen to “junk” from angry folks on both sides!
