Nobody likes politicians, and I can see why. These assholes have earned their reputations. They regularly lie to the American public, use their position and influence to line their pockets or make friends who will give them jobs once they are out of "public service", and they will say anything to get elected.
In the past few weeks, alone, Hillary Clinton, a candidate who once championed the healthcare movement, has advocated letting private companies take over the "healthcare for everyone" movement (because Kaiser, Pacificare, and others have done such a good job up to this point...NOT), so that she won't seem like such a liberal. Rudy Giuliani has accused Mitt Romney of betraying his values, because he is looking at the reality of 48 million uninsured Americans and sees the need for universal healthcare, and of course proposing a solution to the healthcare crisis is very liberal. John McCain is standing by his man, G.W. Bush, on the issue of the war, but refuses to admit he would re-instate the draft in a quick second if he was elected. Fred Thompson has flip-flopped on issues, Mitt Romney has flip-flopped on issues, Hillary and Rudy keep flip-flopping on issues, at least Barak Obama has the decency to be vague.
Looking at the state of our supposed democracy, I am now convinced that if a poll said that a majority of Americans (at least 80%) would vote for the candidate with a purple ass, then you would see the bulk of the front runners dropping trou at a tattoo shop stating, "yes, you heard me, purple, I need the entire ass purple."
