I had to cover McKinney and Barr's primary losses for a campaigns & elections class I took last semester.
RONNIE, maybe you could answer this for me. People tried to simply peg both their losses on "extremism," but I disagree. In looking at the guy who beat Barr, his platform seemed JUST as conservative. I think Barr's mouth is what makes him seem more "extreme," much like McKinney. What say you?
On another note, Election Day should be a paid, government holiday. There's no reason we should have off on Veterans Day, a day supposedly set up to honor those who defended our republic, and then NOT have off on election day, a day where we are decided as citizens the FUTURE of our republic.
Oh, and ElBlanco, I find myself in such disagreement with you that I am actually AGREEING with Abcdxxxx. Cut it out.
