Some here will not be pleased. I am done with voting for one conservadem, to keep the crazy out. They are both crazy, and in this case doing ALEC's bidding.

So, I will vote my conscience. If enough joined, we might get a granger rebellion.

And to those going, well work for a progressive. I am media. I don't work campaigns. I don't give to campaigns, I don't speak to pols outside of official duties. Though I do dig into their policies.

Americans need to do that within the system, and some pols are real progressives, cherish them. The majority are there to feather their own nest.

And people need to work outside as well, and take to the streets even if pointless. They do live in a rich man's bubble
