I don't know about not voting. I just have to dig to find out what in the world they plan to do and stand for. What annoys me is that mass media thinks the campaign strategy is more important which in turn makes candidates focus less on issues and society gets dumber and yadda yadda.
I'm sure some of it originates with bonehead average populace too... I have seen studies recently, showing that how much candidates spend on campaigns don't often correlate to victory and it seems to be people's perception of their personality more than anything. The "likability" factor. Freakonomics... gotta love it.
