Voters forgiven, have second chance

The coming election in about nine weeks may be the most meaningful that I can imagine in my 55 years of being eligible to participate in this process. I have over the years classified voters in basically four groups: Republican, Democrat, Independent, and Casual. The Republicans and Democrats more or less speak for themselves. The Independent and casual voters can as in the last election influence the results for the Presidential selection. The Democrats are far from neophytes at exploiting candidates' professed electoral asset. In doing so they led this country into most disastrous economic situation in history. In other words, they won the election, and lost the country, and very fast. We cannot allow this to happen again, regardless of why you voted as you did. We understand, and you are not only forgiven, but you have to be much smarter than you were two or three years ago. Get your priorities in order. Pay close attention. To listen to the fairy tales that you believed the first time around will only dig the hole deeper. Any way you cut it, keep in mind that we are all in this together. The economic welfare, health and indeed safety of our children, and grandchildren is seriously at risk. Be proud to say that you helped save our country. and put it back to work. God Bless!
