So what happens if the House Sgt. At Arms goes to arrest someone who has Secret Service Protection or other official security? A fight? Drawn weapons?
The only thing I am sure of I'm sure of is that both sides are bound and determined to not let us see their dirty laundry, and they both have a truckload of it.
I have decided that I will not vote for any incumbent, R or D.
Terre Haute has a Mayoral candidate that is an Independent. He is doing well so far. I used to work with him, a darn good guy, even handed and common sense

Even handed and common sense is very rare in politics nowadays. I hope your man gets in.

Yes me too. It is an uphill battle because the D and R establishments are both against him.
Too many vested interests

The Libertarian Party has come closer to my own political stance than either of the majors for a long time. I finally made it official and joined the party this spring.
Of course, just as with holding out for an Independent candidate with similar ideas, I will either miss out on voting for my favorite of the two majors, or vote against my own party at times, but that's pretty much what I've been doing for many years now anyway. L or R, been a LONG time since the father-in-law was running for a county position and I voted a Democrat.

Bedford mayor was independent and she was reelected several times. It isn't impossible.
