Next Tuesday is election day and as it approaches I feel the need to mention how much I dislike the use of these two terms.
Agenda: What's wrong with an agenda? It's a plan that a candidate wants to follow. I want my choice to have an agenda. I want that person to know what they want to do. A candidate without an agenda does not know where they are going or what policies they support. The only time an agenda is a "bad" agenda, is if it is contrary to your agenda.
Special Interests: C'mon folks get real. So a candidate is supported by "special interests". ALL candidates are supported by special interests. People who agree with a candidate's agenda support that candidate, including you. Like an agenda, the only time being supported by special interests is bad is when those interests conflict with yours.
