Something that goes hand in hand with my last post concerns something else I heard. My mom's friends are extremely pro-life, and thats what they're basing who they're voting for on. In telling one of my friends this, she stated that that was a stupid reason to base your decision on and I was a little annoyed at her comment. Who is she to say what issue is more important? I believe that if there is an issue you feel strongly about, you run on it. Some people care more about the economy and they vote congruent to that belief and others feel strongly about abortion...
But am I being a hypocrite by saying this? Can't the same be said for those who vote for a certain candidate because his opponent is too old? or his opponent is black? Is there a line we can draw that distinguishes between what's appropriate and relevant when you vote?
