How about no Rs or Ds? The two party system is ruining this country. Time for some new blood.

Kind of curious why the Hate Everyone crowd things the system would be any different with "New blood"? Simply voting for someone based on "cause they aren't the Establishment" is dumb politics. Be prepared to be politically irrelevant for the rest of your life. Politics is about what is DOABLE, not what we WISH for. Nothing in life is perfect. NO ONE Is ever going to agree 100% of the time. Demanding Ideological purity means you will end up on the sidelines whining instead of actually having a seat at the table.

People make compromises every day. For example, do you bite your tongue or tell your boss what an idiot he REALLY is? Amazing how people who make those kind of compromises day in and day out, suddenly demand iron clad perfection from the political leaders. Just not very rational.

Forget it! Fringers only help the opposition ( Dem, if it's a righty fringer; GOP, if it's a lefty fringer )party.

When, of when are you fringers going to learn that?
