A Failure to Communicate

I posted this as a comment, but I felt the need to make it a post of its own as well.

Wow, all of a sudden 4 new comments on a post that’s 3 weeks old, and all from Ron Paul supporters. (I only approved 2 as the other 2 were just links telling me to “look at this,” if you aren’t a bait and switch don’t dress up like one).

First, don’t assume I’m not educating myself (reference: “No one can understand how his plan works by listening to a small sound bite.” What are you talking about?). Just because I’m leaning a different way than you doesn’t necessarily mean that I haven't done the research or that I’m leaning the wrong way and I’m not going to tell you that you are either. From these last two posts I gather that both of you are making your decision based on your personal ideals which may be very different from mine.

Please, if you want to share your opinion on why you’re voting for a certain candidate, do so. Tell me why, tell me what your requirements are and how you believe he will fulfill them. Don’t tell me to research it, I already am.

Honestly, I have 2 days until I vote in the primary and I’m still uncertain who I’m going to vote for. FairTax is the main fault I find with Huckabee, because I don’t think it’s fair in the least. Doesn’t Paul support it as well?

To give a little more insight into how I choose who to vote for, I’ll say this: I don’t. I don’t choose who to vote for so much as I choose who not to vote for; I pick the lesser of the evils. Romney still has a chance to get my vote, if it weren’t for his stance on abortion ("against abortion except"), he would have it.

I welcome all opinions on this post, but please give specific support that is to the point.

Ah, I see now. I've been linked to by a Ron Paul advocate blog.
