And so… November 2010 draws closer.

So what to do… what to do… apart from making some popcorn and watching the festivities. 😉

I will say, living in the 25th Congressional District of Texas, that means my U.S. Representative is Lloyd Doggett.

He’s got to go. Or better said through the phrase gaining in popularity ’round these parts:

Dump Doggett

As of now, it appears that Dr. Donna Campbell is going to get my vote. Yeah, I’d prefer to vote for the Libertarian candidate, but this time around I’m finding myself having to vote differently. Normally I choose to vote for the person I feel is best for the job (regardless of party affiliation). I don’t like voting for “who sucks less” or the “lesser evil”, nor do I feel voting for “someone with no chance of winning” is throwing my vote away. But this time around, I feel the more important thing is that Washington needs a serious purge (enema?). Doggett has demonstrated time and time again that he’s… well let’s just be frank about it… he’s an elitist that has forgotten how to do the job he was sent to Washington to do. He has got to go. Thus, I feel I have to vote in whatever manner gives the best chances of replacing Doggett. Right now, that seems to be voting for Dr. Donna Campbell.

That said, Dr. Campbell doesn’t seem to be all that bad. Heck, look how Dr. Campbell regards the Second Amendment, gun rights, and gun issues. Given that, remember what Suzanna Gratia-Hupp said:

How a politician stands on the Second Amendment tells you how he or she views you as an individual… as a trustworthy and productive citizen, or as part of an unruly crowd that needs to be lorded over, controlled, supervised, and taken care of.

Consider then what Lloyd Doggett must think of you. He made it quite clear he’s ignoring the will of his constituency. This is not how an elected official — supposed servants of the citizenry — are supposed to behave.

I’m putting my vote behind Dr. Donna Campbell to represent the 25th Congressional District of Texas in the U.S. House of Representatives.

As a general note… folks… these 2010 elections are very important, on the local, city, and state level, but especially on the national level. You must get active, you must contribute money, you must contribute time, you must do something positive towards effecting the outcome of these elections.
