6. Progressives have a real candidate and, like self-loathing idealists ...

... cynically deny themselves what they say they want. Masochistic hypocrisy - a mirror image of the hypocrisy of the right.

7. I hear that and see it a lot! Sadly, you're correct...

I am putting my $$ where my mouth is though.

I hope more of the progressive community will join me and stop being swayed by looks and money!!!

INTEGRITY COUNTS A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN LOOKS OR SOUND BITES!!
