Not voting is sending a message also. Repubs will crawl thru broken glass to vote. Dems have to dragged and cajoled unless its a prez election.
No point in crying about it.

1). I don't care.
2). I love the tea party.

(13 posts)The country's in a funk and the Democratic brand is meaningless except as the lesser of two evils. There's no Progressive w/out progress. Politicians are too scared to actually take a stand, both on the left and right.
