Bull's-eye.

People need to stop being terrified into voting for terrible candidates that are only marginally better than their opponents.

The moment that we stop voting for sub-par candidates is the moment they start to offer us acceptable ones.

So I should vote for someone who will vote the way I would vote zero percent of the time instead of supporting a generally solid conservative who would vote the way I would vote sixty percent of the time?

In the vague hope that someone else will run in the future that would be better?

The wisdom of the old adage seems to be relevant here: a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
