Decision: 2010

I don't usually like to be the one to start political discussions, and I don't plan on talking a lot of politics here at The Bun, however there are some things I'd just like to touch on for a moment.
It's too bad fellow BHS alum, Tay Stevenson won't be representing in St. Paul this year.
It's too bad my fellow Minnesotans re-elected Michele Bachman. I have serious difficulty understanding how anyone can defend a vote for this woman. Have you not listened to the insanity that comes out of her mouth?
It's too bad my home district failed to re-elect Oberstar. He was such an asset for Minnesota.
It's good that Emmer won't be our Governor.
It's too bad Dayton and Horner were the best alternatives.
It's too bad politicians will most likely continue to sing the same old hypocritical song and dance, accomplishing little, all the while playing a delicate and childish blame-game, stalling any sort of progress of the other party's ideas, even when they were in fact their own to begin with. We probably won't see a reduction in spending and certainly won't see a reduction of deficits any time soon, at any level of government. Republicans will continue to stall on their talking point pet issues they use to win votes from the religious majority (see: abortion). Both parties will continue to play to the extremes of the political spectrum and special interests in their endless battle to stay in office rather than serving the moderate majority's interests.

On the bright side, only 40% of Delaware voters were crazy enough to vote for Christine O'donnell.
I'll bake a dozen buns for anyone who participated.
