(12,482 posts)i keep my dissapointment (often disgust) to my small circle of fellow dems. There is no way I would say no and give the repubs something to take heart in. My dissaproval comes from the left but would be assumed in the poll to be from the right.

(12,482 posts)i also think he's done repulsive things (as you note) but with the other guys you get the bad things he's done, none of the good things he's done and a big stinking pile of more bad things like: destruction of social security, medicair and now child labor laws.
So for me it isn't lesser of two evils, its dissapointment vs. evil.
