102. As I said, what drives the rants is voting for an alternative..
Otherwise we would not have seen a Republican candidate favored over a Democratic candidate on DU, that was the incident that opened my eyes.

And otherwise the Reagan Democrats would come in for the same level of hate as Nader voters.

You can vote for or support Republicans and not get anywhere near the same level of hate on DU that you'll get for admitting you voted for any third party.

You can label that if you wish as "voting against the law of gravity" but it doesn't explain the difference in attitude towards Dems who vote for Republicans vs Dems who vote for a third party.
