Wow. No,I don't do that. I pick candidates whose positions on issues that
concern me align reasonably well with my positions. These days, that rarely
is a Republican and almost always is a Democrat. I don't waste votes on
third party candidates.

There is no bigger waste of your vote than to fail to vote for the
candidate you agree with the most.
It is that thinking that assures you will never change the status quo.

For the last 25 years, we have just got the big business candidate, no
matter which party won. Hillary will be the 5th Bush administration.


I don't fail to vote for the candidates I agree with the most. Those are
the candidates I vote for...

As long as they are democrats


Well, there haven't been any Republicans running for statewide or
national office I agree with...so what are you suggesting?


The words "yellow dog democrat" spring to mind.

Maybe it is just that they know how to talk to their base in a
campaign, no matter what they are going to do after being elected.
Bill is the perfect example. He had you all gushing and creaming in
your jeans for 8 years while he was deregulating wall street,
repealing most of the "new deal" banking laws, signing DOMA and "don't
ask", "reforming" welfare and passing trade deals that made Walmart
the biggest retailer in the world. (Remember Hillary was on their
board)
He maintained the Iraq war for 8 years and settled for a deal in
Bosnia which assured ethnic cleansing could continue. His "prosperity"
was largely built on a bubble called "irrational exuberance" by his
fed chair alo0ng with a whole lot of plain old fraud. It was crashing
before he got out of town and all of those "surplus" projections were
vanishing before our eyes..

You still want his face on Rushmore. That is a yellow dog democrat.

Do you really trust Hillary to be what she says she will be after all
of that? More that half of the democrats polled don't trust her now.
They will still vote for her, get what they get and pretend they are
happy about it.
Woof Woof



I trust Mrs. Clinton a lot more than any of the GOPers who want the
nomination. Are you suggesting I vote for a Libertarian? That's funny.
