As long as I've been of age to vote, I took my choices seriously and did the research that was needed to help select the best and most qualified candidate. Pffffft! If you believe that, then I've got some oceanfront property in Arizona to sell. I hate to admit it, but it hasn't been until recently that I have been doing any sort of research or homework on candidates.
Since I've entered a more mature and responsible phase of my life, ahem, I do actually think about who would be the best candidate for the job, and if you've been reading any of my posts recently, you'll know that I'm referring to one race in particular: the race for Texas House District 132.
