I don't run an island. Even if I did, I'd be a benevolent dictator and give you 72 hour's notice. So you're kicking me off?
Wwaaaahhhh (insert crybaby graphic here - you could even put my handle on it)
All I am saying is, I notice a trend everytime our side gets into a mutual and friendly disagreement over various issues. The left in this country laughs and guffaws that the "Republicans are dividing themselves". We appear divided because everyone has an equal say in the debate. They don't appear divided, because the leftist kook-fringe part of the party has essentially hijacked the entire Democrat party, and stifled and muffled dissent or disagreement within. The 2004 Democratic Primary is a good example of this.
When one votes third party, they are effectively voting themselves off the island, while at the same time lying to themselves that they've done something worthwhile and at the same time effectively relegated themselves to a party that cannot win anywhere in this country on one issue alone.
