Kahuna........it's interesting that while you pump up your "independent" choice, you by accident or design, fail to cite the notable and significant attributes of the incumbent, Congressman Rich Nugent. Does the fact that he is a member of the Tea Party Caucus offend you?
Are you upset that Congressman Nugent is pro-veteran and military? He has three sons currently serving this country.
Perhaps his on the record opposition to Obamacare and his commitment to its repeal is a problem for you.
Could it be that you disagree with Congressman Nugent's fight to curb government spending and reign in the national debt?
Is it a bad thing that Congressman Nugent advocates for a balanced budget amendment?
I am reasonably sure you are not offended by the fact that while at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan, the Congressman knelt and prayed with the family of a Marine who was killed in action or his support of an intelligent plan to bring the troops home from Afghanistan. Of course you will have to do some research on the specifics that I found impressive. You may or may not agree.
I took the time to do some cursory research on your man John Russell. I have to say, I was singularly unimpressed, but, that is just my opinion. Congressman Nugent, on the other hand has a definable track record that many in the district agree with.
The "vote them all out" mentality may feel good, but, votes cast with that in mind are ultimately........ frivolously wasted. A more productive attitude would for voters to educate themselves and pull the lever based on a more informed perspective. That would allow us to vote intelligently for candidates that reflect our own beliefs, needs and interests as well as the country's.
For balance to your one-way street.... Chicago style..... here is a Wikipedia link to Congressman Rich Nugent for those that need to hear the other side for balance. For certain, there may be a few positions we both disagree with, but, I doubt there is any candidate we would agree 100% with.
