I swear it’s like arguing with crazy people.
In the real world there’s a finite pie of votes and the guy with the most votes wins. He’s the one who’s empowered. We know this because, for instance, when Obama won his elections he then had the power to shove Obamacare down our throats and wreck our foreign policy. Whatever “empowerment” third parties and write-in candidates got is too trivial in comparison to matter.
And because the pie is finite, there is indeed a negative effect to casting a vote. A vote for one guy is a vote some other guy didn’t get. And he may need that vote to win.
It’s not like the logic of this is complicated. Which is part of what makes your odd denials so pitiful.
BTW, who did you vote for?
You are insisting that you get less liberalism by voting for more of it.
Doesn’t matter. It was a conservative and I am not going to let you divert to who I voted for. YOU empowered the GOP to move left and they did. The only crazy person is you. But you arent crazy are you. You are a leftist with an agenda and in 12 you succeeded in getting 65,000,000 to not only waste their vote on a loss, but to empower your leftist candidates, one of which just said FOAD to America over cutting the funds from Planned Parenthood.
You did that. YOU. PERSONALLY.
Without YOUR browbeating many here would never have voted for him and thus would never have had Paul Ryan in a position ANYONE would have turned to him for over filling Bhoner’s shoes.
YOU are responsible. You and those here and across the right like you.
Personally.
Oh, and I voted for FR's own Eternal Vigilance (Tom Hoefling) and others here voted for Virgil Goode. And, apparently you would have voted for Charles Manson so long as he had the GOPEE nomination. Not a Demonrat, not a boogieman, right?
You ARE what you vote FOR. Own it! We are certainly not crazy. We just recognize you and yours for what you are.
