What is a Voter, an interested citizen to do? Way too much buzz about what is right and what is wrong. What is a VOTER to Believe??
The original questions were: Why can't elected officials act like normal people and fix problems? The second question was  How to you fix it if those elected officials don't fix it??
I am sorry to say, but I suspect that the average Voter has no clue, in a ballot booth, which lever to pull. I suspect that he/she pulls the lever of the name heard most often on the TELEVISION.
The answer to the first question is, yep, simple. Re-Election in 2 years. 24/7 campaigns.
The answer to the second question is more complex. How do voters boot out entrenched/embedded Senators/Congressmen/Lobbyists, along with their staffs?
Voting Booth in 2010? And again in 2012??  I think not. Who is not lying about their position on an issue??
I don't know, and neither does a voter.
