voting

I made sure I was well informed before I went to vote today, unlike the majority of the people in the other party who brought some notoriety to the state a couple of weeks ago. South Carolina has had its share of the political spotlight recently and much of it hasn't been pretty, but pretty doesn't make the news unless pretty goes bad. At least we have one fine senator here and many other moderately capable folks in office. I saw the inquisition of the Brit last week and noticed that there are other states who have some rather bizarre characters making decisions for them. So who's to talk? Since our votes can come back to haunt or shame us, we need to take it seriously and as the privilege it is.
