Everyone is worried

The election scene is hotting up. However, the end result is what counts. The electorate is concerned and what is not good, but at the same time can be expected, given the political situation, is the talk about the negative vote to register one's rejection of all the candidates in the fray. Over the years one had confidence in the party's choice and one voted no matter who the politician was, but the quality of candidates have deteriorated. Criminalisation of politics has come to stay. Before party hopping would be a joke because not much changeovers took place. Now it is the coalition government with the majority that counts. So you may have a party that switches sides at the drop of a hat so to speak.  As some of our popular politicians saying `there are no permanent foes in politics. That's a pretty convenient argument.
