Regardless of my preference for candidates and my subsequent votes, I try to divorce myself from the truly evil duplicity the Republican Party and its Congressional Leadership has bestowed on us these last 2 or 3 decades.
As far as I’m concerned, I will not be voting for my Congressman or my Senator who are up for re-election this year. I’m done with them.
They (Democrats AND Republicans) have more than shown themselves to be weasels cut from the same cloth. I’ll have nothing to do with them ever again while I am still on this earth. They’ve been measured, and they have come up wanting on all accounts IMO.
Your disgust is a badge of honor, but, it was thinking like this that gave us another 4 years of Obummer, and, regardless of how you feel about Mittens, you can’t honestly say that he wouldn’t have been a step up from Obummer.
Baby steps. Remember that almost half the country will pull the D lever no matter what.
