I Voted for Rick Perry

I wasn't going to vote at all. But then all sorts of people, including Donna Brazile and Sean Hannity, started in on me about my "civic obligation." Frankly, I wish less people voted. But nonetheless, I voted. I was the only person in my precinct in the middle of a city that usually sees steady turn out.

No one in Georgia seems to want to vote except the die hard supporters of the various candidates.

I did not want to vote for Romney. But I did not want to vote for Santorum or Gingrich or Paul. Choosing between them has been like choosing the tallest midget. I have been left uninspired for various reasons by each.

So I went with Rick Perry. Consider it a protest vote. But at least, unlike many, I went with who I liked as opposed to voting for someone to be against someone else or some other strategic pattern of voting.

What a mess this primary season is. At least soon we'll be able to focus on Barack Obama instead of the hand we've dealt ourselves this primary season.
