I have a foolproof plan that predates the internet. I look to see who my local commielib newspaper endorses and then vote just the opposite. Works every time.

Once again, only morons use the internet to decide what candidates to vote for and those morons are probably liberals already. If we have a nation of moron voters then we get the government we deserve. I don’t think most conservative voters need Google or F*ckbook to tell us who to vote for. We instinctively know that the MSM lies to us and the more someone is tarred as “extreme right”, the more likely I am to vote for them.

And that's just as bad, if not worse, than the morons on the internet. You're picking your vote on someone you know possibly nothing about. Your only 'information' comes from a source that you admit is untrustworthy. If your paper endorses guy #5 for the Repub primary, how do you pick which of the other four to be your guy? You do realize the internet is just like your local paper, only bigger, with more info, and easier-to-access archives?

And what makes you think all Conservative voters watch the news? I turn on OANN maybe twice a month. That's it. Most of my news comes from here, on FR: the internet. And sure, you may vote for the extreme right, but that dosn't mean everyone is, and especially not people calling themselves 'independent'. People who are generally the swing vote, and likely know the least about either side's candidate, and hence are more likely to do some cursory research. Doing some research on your candidate isn't being a moron, it's called being an informed voter and knowing what's going on, as well as the current issues and what your candidate believes in.

Blindly voting for the Repub is almost as bad as blindly voting for the Dem. How can you educate the morons who vote Dem 'just because', when you do the same for the Repub? When you talk with a Dem or Independent, how can you convince them to vote Repub if you can't argue the negatives/fakenews on your guy, because you don't even know what they are?
