To not vote for the better choice because it is not perfect is a tantrum, an emotional cleansing for its proponents to make them finally feel they are the holy ones. Its like George Washingtons men complaining they will not fight the evil of the British, because everything wasn’t right with the Congress not doing everything Washington needed at the time. Good thing these folks were not Washington
Man does not survive by bread alone...... he must have self esteem
But that's the thing — those of us that aren't on-board aren't doing it because they're not perfect, we're doing it because the candidate being presented is unacceptable.
Romney, for instance, is a liberal statist… and we were supposed to vote for him because?
No, voting Republican because of Republican is just as idiotic as voting Democrat because of Democrat — heck, voting Democrat is actually smarter because they advance their goals, something that we've not seen the Republican party doing. (In fact, we've seen them [the Republicans] advancing opposition to their stated platform planks.) … it makes no sense to vote for those who are actively striving for things that you don't want and then complaining when your goals aren't being advanced.
