The problem with being a moderate like myself is being caugth in the middle on so many things in a very polarized society. On the one hand, Im happy that for the first time in a while, I feel like my gun rights wont be trounced upon. I feel like we may make head way on border issues and a number of other conservative needs will be met......However, I worry about the middle class. Those of us on the cusp of being the working poor are at a real tipping point. My fear is going back to a model of support for the wealthiest top percentage of citizenry right now will finish off what little of the middle class is left. Locally speaking, I fear for NC schools, teachers, our budget and the working women who are not making equal pay for equal work. Nationally, I wory about budget and education. Democracy is the best system on earth. While not all of picks won, I respect the voice of the people. Here is what I would ask of those of you who made change happen with your vote to remove an incumbent. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE hold our governments feet to the fire! I voted for some of each yesterday. Like I said earlier, I find myself in a moderate political state of mind at this point in my life. So Im a bit conflicted witht the outcome at the moment. No matter who holds the office, WE the people must hold them accountable. They work for us!
