No one (at least not me) is seeking a perfect candidate. It would be great if that was one of our choices, but it isn’t.
A choice between Obama and Etch-a-Sketch os no choice at all. IOW, it’s a choice between Obama, or Obama-lite!
I’ll pass!
Oddly enough, that’s what a bunch of people around here said before the last election.
It is just possible conservatives sitting it out may have made the difference in one or more battleground states.
Does anyone really think Obama is no worse than McCain would have been?
Given the difficulty Obama had getting Obamacare through, does anybody seriously think the same law would have passed with McCain as president?
I’m coming to the conclusion that the perfect is not only the enemy of the good, it is the most deadly enemy of the good.
Western civilization and a free market economy objectively provide more prosperity AND more freedom to a much greater percentage of their populations than any system in history. Yet massive numbers of people in our society insist both systems must be destroyed because neither system is perfect.
