It takes a lot of campaigning to win, especially when it comes to mid-level independent news magazine polls. Some of the winners don't deserve to win, or even be in that category. So, when I heard that my beloved Tacopocalypse didn't win anything (but was a runner up), I knew that I must post my response to the rest of the winners and losers.
Now, obviously, I won't have complete familiarity with all of the categories, and unlike most voters, I'll be upfront about it. I think that's the biggest problem. A LOT of people just vote for what's popular, not having first hand experience with the subject at hand.
Here we go!
