Bill's Notes

[Industrialblog, November 5, 2006]
Vote!
Don't forget to vote. I'll be voting something along these lines:

Pennsylvania governor: Ed Rendell. I always liked Ed, even though there will be sex scandals in his second term. The GOP candidate, Lynn Swann, is an excellent candidate, but Ed Rendell is a terrific governor and I hope will run for president in 2008. Why not elect governor of a northern state? When's the last time we did that? Oh, FDR. And he worked out pretty well, didn't he?

Pennsylvania senator: Rick Santorum. He's pro-life and is a tireless advocate of the poor, even though he never gets any credit for the latter.

PA congressional and state elections: Probably GOP party line.

The Dems of course have their dander up; in this sixth year of a presidential term, they're looking for the historic big win of the opposition party. It won't be as big as historically, but I think the Dems will pull it off. They've finally ran a shrewd campaign, which was: STFU and let the pendulum swing back. Duh. Only took 'em forever.

IndustrialBlog encourages voting. I will not endorse party-line voting for this election. I look for the following:

1. Pro-life.
2. Economically reasonable, tilting liberal.
3. Fiscal responsibility.
4. Strong national defense and anti-crime policies.
5. Not a card-carrying member of the Culture of Death on social issues.

So get out and vote!
