I'm the same way - I don't like to waste my time on political surveys.
Sad fact this year that we don't have much of a choice. I won't vote for four more years of this , but his replacement doesn't look so good either. Politicians all tell us the same thing , but with different words - depending on their party affiliation. Too many vote the middle and make deals for pet projects...
The deadlocked votes on budget and inaction from EVERYONE in DC has left a bitter taste in a lot of peoples' mouths.
Shame about the mom and pop stores with Wal-Mart moving in , but in the long run it might make more jobs for the community. Some of the mom and pops might be able to take advantage of walmarts pricing and use it to their advantage to expand a business or launch into another segment of the whole tourism industry ; i.e. Rick and Lenny might talk to the sporting goods manager and get a discount on fishing gear in exchange for insight into what to order , or be able to get line , lead , nets etc. cheaper and closer. Hope it works out for the best for locals.
