A great part of what I will be trying to evaluate when I actually vote will be which of the candidates is actually most likely to follow through on these ideas if elected, both in intention and ability. (I think at least 50% of what most of them are saying is a reflection not of what they think needs to be done but what they think we want to hear.)

The likelihood of actually getting the government I want a lot more important to me than the order of their top three priorities if elected, especially when for almost all of them two of the three priorities are the same.

Good thoughts.
I agree.
