part of the problem is that it is only recently that the younger folks are taking a keener interest in politics (better exposure to it i suppose? i don't know)
the other part of the problem is that we are stuck between a rock and a hard place here: it's almost like choosing the "lesser of evils".
i am concerned with a party that uses mudslinging as its main platform. (that is, at least, what is occuring locally.)
i am also concerned with a party that has a stand on social issues that requires containment.
i also remember brian mulroney, which gives me pause when it comes to voting pc. if twice, shame on us, you know? nafta anyone? gst? no thanks. i see where the progressive conservative's "economic reform" has taken us before.
not that i'm blind to where the liberals have taken us. but even so.
and ontario has been burned too badly & too recently by the ndp to go that path again, i think. to have the ndp & pc while being a plausible idea, wouldn't necessarily provide good results.
i don't know how i'm going to vote this year, and i've voted on everything i was given the right to vote on since i turned 18.
this will be interesting indeed.
