None of The Above

     So The Montgomery Advertiser has backed out of the endorsement game, refusing to endorse either of the two major party candidates for Governor.
     Just wondering: what does that say to potential first-time voters who are conflicted over the choice between Democrat Ron Sparks and Republican Robert Bentley? Don't vote?
     Let's hope the paper doesn't feature an editorial next Sunday encouraging people to get out and vote. It might just ring a touch hollow.

  1. I disagree, Tim.

    Encouraging people to vote does not mean that the gubernatorial race is the only one. There are plenty of other "down-ticket" candidates who should be considered. PLus, there are four constitutional amendments to vote on.

    I too am very disappointed at both gubernatorial candidates. I'm glad that the MA said, "A pox on both your houses."

    I'll be voting on Nov. 2. When I start at the top of the ticket I will be holding my nose--but I will vote nevertheless.
