You think the Democrats don't have enough factionistic tendencies to provide alternate points of view? There are enough points of view in this thread alone to provide basis for a multiple of political parties. Surely your definition of election day doesn't require that good go up against evil in a winner takes all contest. That won't work out to well as is illustrated by the present case.
It wasn't always like this. It's just that the GOP has piled bad onto bad for the last 60 years in order to define itself into electoral relevance. It's reached the point of saturation, just too bad to go on.
Perhaps you're just disagreeable today. You did, after all, wake up into a nightmare.
