How I would and will vote

I have just finished reading an article about how unhappy the electorate is with politicians and it looks like it is going to be a bad year for incumbants.

"Most Americans describe themselves as being in an anti-incumbent mood heading into this fall's midterm congressional elections, and the percentage of people who approve of their own representative's performance is at the lowest level since 1994, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll."

And that raises the question of poor ol' Joe Lieberman. In many ways I would be inclined to vote for him, given the chance. But I have now decided that after watching the Bush admin destroy conservatism for the next generation or so, blow a good chance to reform Social Security, and in general mess up our foreign policy, while Congress behaves as if the FBI raiding a Congressman's office as if he were not above the law is the greatest threat to the American public since Pearl Harbor, and instead begins to talk about things like gay marriage, I am not in a mood to vote for any incumbent, Republican or Democrat. As the good bishop is reputed to have told the crusaders during the Albegensian Crusade, "Kill them all! God will know his own!"

Only if both parties understand how fed up we are with professional politicians, in fact with the whole politically active class in America including the stipendiary pundits, pollsters, and commentators, can there be any significant change. Only if every politician must run as if his political life were on the line will they get serious.

Any other takers out there?
