‘What we need to hear’ VS ‘what we want to hear’

In the coming days and weeks, I’ll be studying the Obama vs Keyes Senate race in Illinois.
Why? Because I live in Illinois and there is plenty of news and information to review. Also, this race is a good example of politics today. On one side, you have a politically correct, polished, made-for-tv candidate that speaks one way as to appeal to the masses, yet legislates quite differently. On the other, you have a candidate who is driven by principles and the truth therein. Subsequently he is mocked, belittled, and labeled (’right-wing’, ‘nut’, etc) instead of debated on the principles on which he is running.
