Brian Kemp...the lesser of two weasels...
“the lesser of two evils.”
It is unlikely that any of us will ever consider a choice between two candidates as anything other than picking the lesser of two evils. That’s because everyone is somewhere on an infinite spectrum of subjects. What are the odds that someone you don’t know would vote the same way on every issue you might find defining? Pretty small. The best we can ever hope for is hitting a majority of our top issues. And it is likely that even when we have an ideal candidate that he’ll vote down something you’d rather he vote up on. That’s life.
Just to make it more interesting, they trade their votes. “I’ll vote for your bridge to nowhere if you fund my social project.” That’s how it has been and always will be. If you tried to tell your guy to only vote for his core values, he would likely mentally roll his eyes while saying, “Yes of course I will.”
