That is one of the problems with focusing so much attention and national and presidential politics

The average person can't have much real impact nationally but they can on small local politics. People are unhappy with the educations system so they demand a president who will focus on education but then they never even bother to show and vote for their local school board. A lot of time the decisions that affect us the most personally are being made at the local level. Besides a lot of national politicians start at locally so you can work to improve that you will help to improve what works its way to the top. Being part of the grassroots does give you some voice.
For those still wondering why the Republicans need to nominate Romney.....

It's much the same elsewhere - just not as obvious because there's no electoral college.

If MA doesn't go to Obama, he may as well concede then and there. *NM*

Yeah, but if you looks at all of the other polls, this is pretty much in line.....

Rubio does seem like a winner, but I'd be interested to hear why you consider Christie a bad choice.

I don't think Christie could swing Jersey or will play as well on the national stage

Romney has the best chance of winning against Obama, but he's also the most like him.

If Ron Paul is the republican nominee, he will be the next President.
