I think that I’ve read hundreds of your posts over the years (I lurked long before signing up) and I think that this is the first time that I’ve ever disagreed.
I admit that none of our options are good, but I don’t think that voting for the worst (so called) Republican is going to net us much more than the worst Dems.
Would you marry a woman who cheated on you constantly just because she promised that be ‘better’ if you marry her? Better doesn’t mean good.
I’d rather fight the known enemy than go along with a supposed friend with a history as bad as McCain’s.
But in this case you HAVE to get married - there's NO CHOICE. Choose one from Column A or one from Column B - or they'll duke it out with the winner showing up in your bed next January.
If I had to choose between marrying a cheating woman or marrying a cheating man, I'll take the woman thank you.
McCain is not an ideal Republican, but at least he hews more to the conservative side of things than the alternatives.
Like your analogy - I'd rather spend time in marriage and in bed with a woman than with a man.
