#1 well said.

Someone said - the Republicans deserve to lose - but the democrats don't deserve to win.

That pretty much says it for me. The Republicans disgust me - just not as much as the out-of-reality democrats do.

#2 Better said that the Republicans do not deserve to win but that the Democrats certainly deserve to lose.

/Canadian comment... though we have the same problem up here

#3 . . . the Republicans deserve to lose - but the democrats don't deserve to win . . .

That's life in the two-party system, kids. There is usually no candidate on the ballot named "Your Theoretical Ideal." You vote for the best available on Election Day.

If you want to see Theo Rheticalideal on the ballot someday, you've got to play the long game of persuasion in the op-eds and the blogs and the primaries--always realizing and accepting that you'll never get everything you want.

#4 HHHHHHHMMMMMMMM Part Tres > the Dems, or many of them, may be inclined to support a Manpower-intensive, Govt-intensive, MIC/Costs-intensive NATIONAL MILITARY DRAFT which they promise can be done without raising taxes + will only be used for Afghanistan, AND ONLY IN AFGHANISTAN becuz Amer will withdraw from Dubya's alleged
"quagmire" in Iraq + leave Iran alone to dev its peaceful domestic nuke energy programs. Plus, the USA will go on feeding NORTH KOREA + leave Cuba's CASTRO alone to eat his imported black hams while the rest of Cuba starves due to insufficient US funding of UNO Intern Dev Progs. KIMMIE WILL STOP THREATENING ASIA IFF ONLY AMERICA WOULD ONLY WITHDRAW FROM ASIA-PACIFIC BACK TO CONUS WHILE INCREASING ITS $$$ PAYOUT TO THE UNO WITHOUT ASKING THE UNO OR ANY NATION TO ENSURE THAT US $$$ IS USED FOR ITS INTENDED OR ALLOCATED PURPOSES. America needs a massive Draft so that US troops can be used to destroy = protect the drug fields of Afghanistan and Asia. JUst waiting for the day when the MSM will officially substitute CONSERVATIVE in PALEOCONSERVATIVE + NEOCONSERVATIVE, etc, wid STALINIST/SOVIET/
MARXISTS/COMMUNIST/GOVERNMENTIST, which in reality is how the Left interpretes these labels, directly or indirectly, anyways. America can war for global empire as long as it doesn't rule or control its own said empire, i.e. AMERICA = FASCIST AMERIKA CAN WAR FOR EMPIRE AS LONG AS IT WAGES WAR TO LOSE.
