That might’ve worked on me in 1996, 2008 or 2012. I’m done with it.
And we might as well just roll over and die. I hate the choices we have been getting, but any choice would be better than the machine of destruction that wins when we get so discouraged that we can't hold our noses for the lesser of two evils. To do so ensures the greater evil prevails. We can try to influence the Primaries to get some good candidates - if that fails, I'm voting for the lesser evil. The Dims have taken little steps for decades to get where they're at - we seem to have some sense that we can turn it all around in one fell swoop - - - if only we ever had the perfect candidate to vote for. Nobody can convince me that a really crappy McCain - with a Palin to give us hope, would have been as bad as an Obama. Same goes for a Romney over Obama. Until we can go all-in for our candidate in the actual election, as the Dims always do, we are doomed to keep adding oil to the chute we are sliding down.
