Why I didn't vote for Saxby
Saxby Chambliss supported the September/October bailout. Period. That's it.
I am a HUGE fan of The Fair Tax, as well as some of the other law-making Chambliss has been up to over the course of his career... But that bailout was and continues to be BAD for America. Georgians knew it, and we told him. HE did not listen. That is arrogance, at best, and I have sent many a letter to him condemning him for his vote for the bailout.
So - I voted for the Libertarian candidate on Nov 4th.
What will I do now? Tough one. I have to say - it'd be easier if he'd admit that he had made a HUGE mistake... I could forgive him and get back to what I like about him... But he CONTINUES to stand by his vote. So - either he's a GIANT fool and really thinks the bailout is the "right" thing for the US, or he's a villain... and I don't know which. That said, Martin's ads representing the Fair Tax were outright lies themselves, and I can't support him for that reason alone.
I have asked everyone in my life what they think, and they have all saud I should support Chambliss because of the Fair Tax. I just may do that, but I - one day before I HAVE to make up my mind about how to deal with this quandry - just don't know. I guess that I'll either NOT vote at all, or vote for Chambliss - hoping for the best.
