Wants politicians to work together

Published: December 18, 2012 

Thank you so much for printing the election final results. Now I hope everyone will look at it closer. There was not one thing that was a landslide victory. Not an election, referendum, bill; not a single thing that about 40 to 50 percent of the people voted the opposite way. We can't agree on anything in our state so how do we expect our politicians in Washington D.C. to do the same? Yet we voted to send the same people back to keep being undecided. But wait, we all did agree on one thing -- the latest poll said we agreed our politicians had the lowest approval rating ever. Does anyone else besides me see the ill-advised thinking in all this? Maybe we as a state could get behind one thing (all of us from all parties). Like maybe jobs. Let us as a state show the rest of the country how government should work. As citizens, let's all get involved and tell our elected officials this is they way it's going to be and if you do not accomplish the mission we will find someone who will. Maybe we should take a little advice from our own military. They have been working this way forever. One mission, one goal, one victory. There is a lot to be said about teamwork.
