Chuckles has a point

single party states are SO much more efficient at carrying out “the will of the people” (aka mob rule)

just ask Cuba, North Korea, China, Syria (where Assad just won a 3rd 7-year term: he wont the popular vote)

totalitarian states don’t need no steenkin’ opposition
party

Massachusetts (where I live). I am unenrolled in either party so I admittedly can help choose a candidate in either party by requesting a Rep. or Dem. ballot—that seems to pose problems, though.. people who might really be on “one side” can help to choose the candidates on the other, as long as they’re unenrolled and can pick one ballot or the other in primaries.

In 2004 I got to vote against Kerry twice (in the primary I picked, ugh, John Edwards...) In the 6th Cong District I can vote against Dem. John Tierney twice—assuming he wins the primary which he prob will
