    Seems when both parties in a 2 party-dominated system have unpopular candidates, the horse race ends up being purely about who turns off their base the least. Not who they impress or win over, but just how many votes one doesn’t lose and the other does.

        Honestly, stfu. “Nows not the time to change it” has been an excuse for far too many elections now. If we don’t start changing it now we never will. Pacifism and apathy is just as bad. It will never be a great time for change because by it’s very nature, change is hard. If it were easy, we’d be doing it already.

        The best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago. The next best time is today.

    I love how the Left and Democrats pretend that corruption and crime doesn’t effect their party…
