What do you suppose we do about it? Start a third party? Not vote?
As long as the system stays the same way, we have little other choice. The Tea Party experiment didn’t last a decade either, although it did air out some of the dirty laundry of the uniparty.
Most of the time I've seemed to vote for the candidate I dislike least.
I do know it this type of thinking that got us president Trump but that is such unique situation its not a basis for a solid strategy.
Somehow we need to make election day occur right after tax day. And maybe do the Reagan thing and we have to pay in cash at counter.
