Those are actually the most important...we can do more to effect change on the local level than anywhere else. Most folks just don't realize that. Judges are the most difficult to figure out. I wish there were better ways to inform us of their beliefs.

A...okay Big Daddy, for you I'll come out and vote. Actually, I'm thinking about switching back from Republican to Democrat just so I can vote in the primary. I think if half the republicans did that and then the other republicans voted for a clean republican who is not on the ballot in the primary yet (but will be), then we could sweep the whole kitten-caboodle in the final race.

Quickly, I can think of four areas (although I'm certain there are more) where Biblical instruction should inform our public actions.

I'm a fiscal, free-market, limited-government conservative myself, in addition to my social conservatism.
