Well, for my money, that's what it's all about.. voting for the person who's best able to do the job, and most willing to do it.
I'll be honest. I had some qualms voting for Ted because of his stand on one particular issue. But I looked at the other candidates, and no-one was offering anything close to what Ted did. He was the only one offering something positive to that riding. Anything positive the other candidates were offering weren't *their* platforms.. it was just a repeat of the party platform.
I'm glad you got a representative who will work for you (even if he is of a different party than mine.)
