You constantly demonize the opposition, with things like "HAHAHAHAHAHA" and then links to articles that make Republicans look bad, which by extension makes your candidate look good.

The "Wonder Bread White" mindless drones who watch Fox vote based on the bible and a rifle. That's not me by a long shot so stop trying to equate me with them.

- protect women's rights to their bodies
- keep Jesus and God outside of the law
- protect the environment
- keep Wall Street and the banks in check
- leave SS alone
- reasonable immigration reform
- you make bigger bucks, you pay bigger taxes

Based on the above, who should I vote for?
It doesn't matter why you vote the way you do, since the end result is the same: you both end up voting down party lines. Do you think politicians care why you vote for them? If they can act in ways that you don't support and still get your vote, your opinion becomes irrelevant.

Honestly, you might as well just quit thinking and remaining informed about politics, cause if you're just going to vote the same either way, it makes sense to spend your time doing concentrating on something where your attentions might actually affect your life.
