I respect you for that but my experience is that no candidate ever exactly mirrors what I want. It has always been a matter of voting for the lesser of two evils. Sure, I could forget the consequences of my vote and just vote for self-gratification but that helps no one but my own ego.
Voting for principle is only for ego?
Good Lord. No wonder the GOP is in such sorry shape. We give them permission to misbehave and won't hold them responsible for their betrayal of trust.
Thanks. For nothing.
