Election of fools-Time wasted

Today is Election Day. You would think that with this day, I'd be a good citizen and perform my civic duty. You would say that I'm a fool if I didn't perform my civic duty. Maybe I am. Yet I have to believe that I would be a fool if I did. Here's why: not one of the candidates running for office have anything good to say. Not one of the candidates have offered to do anything good. All of them rally against the other person telling us nothing new.
It's crazy! Some would say. You have to do your civic duty or else the country will fall into the wrong hands! They would scream. No, I'm sane. I would like to shout back. I just don't feel right about voting for a cadre of fools screaming at the top of their lungs. Maybe I want to rebel myself by withholding my vote from any of the fools. Maybe I'm looking for some common sense. I don't know. All I do know is that the last time I voted, it was time wasted for the person I hated was voted to the highest level of government.
