I just get so tired of holding my nose.

We are harvesting the crop produced from voting for the lesser of two evils for generations now.
Seems to me the choice is like voting for a size 9 ½ EE shoe up your hind end or a 10 D.

--We are harvesting the crop produced from voting for the lesser of two evils for generations now. Seems to me the choice is like voting for a size 9 ½ EE shoe up your hind end or a 10 D.-- I wish I had said that! If I ever use that, I'll give you credit, my Spartan friend. I usually say that the lesser of 2 evils is still evil. The situation we have right now is that the right wing of the "republicrat" party is in danger of losing Congressional seats to the left wing of the "republicrat" party. This party, nevertheless, does a great job of choking off, through state election laws and ballot rules, any hope for an original third party with new, good ideas. Rather like the shade of a decrepit old tree preventing new growth from thriving under it.

No, I think it is more like choosing between sickness(R) and death(D). Ironically, it is the "cut and run" Republicans that are supporting euthanasia, metaphorically speaking. They think it is time to remove the feeding tube. I don't.
