Do you really think they care about what you think? Seriously.
All your politicians care about is whether they get your votes are not in the upcoming election. Republicans have discovered that the only thing they have to do to get elected is to say "would you rather have a democrat?" and all of the party cheerleaders fall into line.
In between elections, they do anything they like. The cycle needs to end.
By golly, then let's ALL stay home. That'll show 'em. /sarc
Every hear of a primary?
