(3,891 posts)But I've heard that crap all my life. Every election is the one we have to look at who can win. We don't dare vote for who we like, because the election is too important. Why if we had a Republican in the White House now we'd have the NSA spying, wars in several countries, Drones dropping 300 bombs a year on the defenseless. Oh wait, that's what we have now.
That mentality is what got us into the fucking mess in the first place. The lesser of two evils mentality. That means we take a big bite out of the crap sandwich, pretending it's better when it's made by Democrats, they put cheese on it. "It almost hides the flavor of the crap"
The lesser of two evils is still driving us to hell, the only difference is that we might get there a full day earlier with a Rethug behind the wheel. We need someone who will drive away from hell, and will argue about principles, and ideals. Not some revolting we calculate that this one can win so hold your nose and vote damn it nonsense. Not again. Not ever again.
