You prove my point perfectly. Here was a candidate you agreed with on virtually every issue, yet you not only didn't vote for him, you cast a vote for a slimy hack who was a criminal. I am not advocating for nazism, or anti- semitism; my observation was that most people now consider certain extreme beliefs (almost always either "racist" or "anti-semitic") to be more despicable than actual crimes, even violent ones. I know Edwards didn't rape or kill anyone (that we know of), but I still maintain that he would have been elected over Duke even if he had bragged about his violent crimes on the campaign trail. Would you have voted for him in that case?

I like to think I voted against Duke, instead of for Edwards. Helps me keep my dinner down.

The point is that you don't judge people by their words, you judge them by their deeds.
