If you have watched TV anytime lately, you would be familiar with reality shows. <\/p>\n
The Big Brother house with cameras everywhere and house guests with all sorts of secret alliances,\u00a0 to keep from being expelled. Of course there is Survivor,\u00a0 where the people team up in tribes, to compete for essentials on an exotic island. Winners get a tarp and a bowl of rice. MTV, which used to be about pop music videos, has now descended into ridiculousness,\u00a0no literally, the show is called Ridiculous.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So now we move to the Midterm Elections.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
The \u201cbeen there, done that,\u201d tribe is merging with the common sense tribe and together they total 46.2 % of the proven electorate.\u00a0The twist in this adventure is the 15 percent for the outgoing mayor (prayers for a quick recovery). <\/p>\n
My bet is with the Captain who only needs a third of this vote to have the majority.\u00a0 No turbulence,\u00a0 I see clear skies in Cape Coral with the Captain. <\/p>\n
Get out and VOTE \u2013 early voting begins Oct. 19 from 10 a.m. \u2013 6 p.m).<\/p>\n
