knew they were lying about.

Is there some reason why you think I should NOT state my opinion on this? NOW is the time to let the party know that 'NO' we will no longer hold our noses, stfu and vote!

Interesting that you should think voters are the problem.

Telling the party how we feel NOW, is giving them the opportunity to provide candidates people can vote FOR.

I don't believe in deceptions, not for any reason. I stated my position and I am far from alone, though some might feel intimidated into remaining silent about it, until the election comes, when they can state their opinion at the ballot box.

Better to tell the party now what we want, giving them the opportunity to LISTEN to the voters.

They ignored them before the mid terms. And then the voters ignored them.

Are you saying we should LIE about we feel regarding Corporate candidates being our only choice?
