Politics & Endorsements
November 13, 2007
It’s inevitable. With every election cycle different groups and people who think they’re important will endorse a candidate. Hollywood will be split on the Democrats, Pro-life groups endorse Thompson, unions endorse Hillary and Obama and, much to just about everyone’s surprise, Pat Robertson has endorse Rudy. I guess Robertson may actually realize that abortion isn’t the only issue out there. But do endorsements really mean anything? Question: has an endorsement ever affected the way you vote in an election?
No. Endorsements are dumb, in my opinion. They mean nothing more than someone backing someone else with the same views. Except Robertson that is. I couldn’t care less who’s supported by what group or person.

I love your site and know a lot of vets/military read it. Please pass this on thru all the channels you know:
Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University is FREE til Wed
Please see link below on instructions to do this 13 week, normally $100 course online for free for all vets. Hurry, because this offer expires tomorrow. I am not affiliated with Dave Ramsey…I just enjoy his podcasts (radio show), and he mentioned this on yesterday’s show (you won’t find it at his website).

Chris, I agree. I don’t need some organization officially endorsing a candidate before I will vote for them. To me it strikes me as a used car salesman approach to politics.

It may be that endorsements have negative effect: Robertson is a bit of a politico-religious gadfly, and I would suspect his motiviation (and his candidate). Gore endorsed Howard Dean, heh-heh…..
