Who to be vote for this fall?

If you are undecided in this year’s election, check out Kyle-Anne Shiver’s post at American Thinker today.  A lot of good information and the final question to ask yourself when you are ready to vote:

When it comes to politics, my grandfather’s election question has always been the most reliable: “From which of these guys would you buy a used car?”

This method is definitely better than asking yourself “how you feel”.  

I especially like this advice:

As my grandfather would explain, honesty and character are truly the only things one can count on in a candidate.  Once a man is in office, everything else — promises, platforms, programs — can be left at the polling-place door.  But character and integrity are indispensable, not easily shed behind even the grandest closed doors.

And how would you define character?  Ms. Shiver provide a quote from J.C. Watts:

J. C. Watts is a man after my grandfather’s heart, especially on “character”:

“Everyone tries to define this thing called ‘character.’ It’s not hard. Character is doing what’s right when nobody’s looking.”

Read her tale about the two salesman running in this year’s election.

What’s the difference between a Republican and a Democrat?

The Cantrankerous Old White Guy has a post to answer the question. Check it out. LOL
